Range & habitat
The 'original true' Pittosporum phillyreoides named by Augustin Pyramus de Candolle was only native to a narrow coastal strip of northern Western Australia. When considered as the synonym, Pittosporum angustifolium is native across Australia in New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Victoria, Western Australia, and the Northern Territory.
