Senegalia hereroensis is a species of trees in the genus Senegalia. It is indigenous to Southern Africa, and its native range includes western Zimbabwe, Botswana, and Namibia, and the Northern Provinces, Cape Provinces, and Free State of South Africa. It is native to Zambezian wooded grassland (savanna), and wooded grasslands of the Kalahari-Highveld regional transition zone.[3]
Senegalia hereroensis may be confused with Senegalia afra but it has more robust prickles.
The larvae of the moths Phyllonorycter leucaspis and Heniocha dyops (marbled emperor) feed on S. hereroensis.
