[edit] Notes

1. ^ Serotinous species retain their seed in their follicles until prompted to release them by exposure to bushfire. Non-serotinous species release their seed spontaneously as soon as it reaches maturity. Weakly serotinous species release some seed spontaneously, but retain some until exposed to bushfire.
2. ^ "P2 (W.A.)" means a "Priority Two - Poorly Known Taxa" under Western Australia's Wildlife Conservation Act 1950.
