Ficus baileyana

A name published by Karel Domin in 1921 as a replacement name for a Queensland fig. GBIF carries it as accepted, but Kew's checklist gives no distribution and there are no usable wild records. It may now be treated as a synonym of another Australian fig. Nothing specific is known about how it grows.
