You're welcome.

Buckinghamia celsissima grows naturally here in the wet tropics (NE. Qld) .

In real wild life i have yet to first hand see this Lomatia arborescens – would love to.
I do have first hand experiences with several more Lomatia spp. – hence i recognise this genus in this sighting of yours and had to key this species out in the Flora of NSW and double check the species description .

I am not a NatureMapr moderator in this New England region, hence a NatureMapr person who is will have to check and verfiy or not, this sighting identification .

Thank you @JasonPStewartNMsnc2016
As soon as I dropped the Buckinghamia, I had this thought in the head saying it wasn’t correct.
Appreciate that guidance.
Cheers
Jim
