Brachychiton grandiflorus is a tree of the genus Brachychiton[lower-alpha 1] native to the Cape York Peninsula in Queensland, Australia. It was described in 1988.[2]
Notes
- ↑ 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]
