Tecticornia arbuscula (Shrubby glasswort) is a species of plant in the family Amaranthaceae, native to Australia. It grows to 2 metres in height, with a spreading habit. It has succulent swollen branchlets with small leaf lobes.[2][3]

The species occurs on shorelines in coastal or estuarine areas or in salt marshes, especially marshes subject to occasional inundation by the ocean. It has a patchy distribution across south coastal Australia, occurring in southern Western Australia, South Australia, Victoria, New South Wales and Tasmania.[2][3][4]

Originally published by Robert Brown under the name Salicornia arbuscula, it was transferred into Sclerostegia by Paul G. Wilson in 1980, before being merged into Tecticornia in 2007.[1]
