Jervis Bay grevillea was first formally described in 1986 by Donald McGillivray who gave it the name Grevillea barklyana subsp. macleayana in his book, New Names in Grevillea (Proteaceae), from specimens collected near Bream Beach by Roger Coveny in 1971.[3] In 1994, Peter Olde and Neil Marriott changed the name to Grevillea macleayana in The Grevillea Book.[4] The specific epithet (macleayana) honours William John Macleay.[5]

Distribution and habitat

Grevillea macleayana grows in low woodland or shrubland in near-coastal areas of New South Wales from near Jervis Bay to Moruya, and inland as far as Bundanoon.[1][2]
