Bursaria calcicola

Bursaria calcicola is a species of flowering plant in the family Pittosporaceae and is endemic to a restricted area near Wombeyan Caves in New South Wales.

It is a spiny, hairy, erect or sprawling shrub with clustered, narrowly elliptic to egg-shaped leaves, white flowers with triangular sepals, cream-coloured petals and flattened fruit.

Bursaria calcicola is an erect or sprawling shrub than typically grows to a height of less than 3 m (9.8 ft), its foliage covered with hairs flattened against the surface and its branches armed with spines.

Flowering occurs in late spring and the fruit is a flattened capsule 8–10 mm (0.31–0.39 in) in diameter.
