Taxonomy

Distribution
The shrub is commonly situated in coastal areas and the adjacent tablelands[1] in New South Wales and Queensland. In New South Wales it is found from Nerriga in the south to Inverell in the west[4] to north of the Queensland border as far as Yeppoon and the Carnarvon National Park.[1] It is often located along rocky streams as a part of Eucalyptus woodland communities growing in rocky and sandy soils[4] or along the fringes of rainforest in more northern areas.[1]
