Brachychiton garrawayae is a small tree of the genus Brachychiton[lower-alpha 1] found on the Cape York peninsula.[2]

Notes

  1. The genus Brachychiton was traditionally placed in the family Sterculiaceae, but that family, along with Bombacaceae and Tiliaceae, has been found to be polyphyletic and is now sunk into a more broadly-defined Malvaceae[1]
