Philcoxia goiasensis is a rare annual herb in the Plantaginaceae family and is endemic to the Rio da Prata area of Posse, Goiás, in Brazil.

It was discovered April 5, 1966 by H. S. Irwin, J. Russell, J. W. Grear Jr, R. Souza and R. Reisdos Santos at 800 meters altitude in the Serra Geral de Goiás, part of the cerrado, in an open, sandy area. Unlike the other three species in the genus, P. goiasensis is remarkably smaller.
