 Other common species include broad-leaved bottle tree ("Brachychiton australis") and belah ("Casuarina cristata").The bottle tree is replaced by the kurrajong in similar communities in New South Wales.Although the species status under Queensland's Nature Conservation Act is "least concern", it is an emergent tree species in an endangered ecosystem known as "semi-evergreen vine thickets of the Brigalow Belt (North and South) and Nandewar bioregions", listed under the Commonwealth EPBC Act, and is declining across its range.
