Macrozamia communis is an Australian cycad found on the east coast of New South Wales.

The burrawang has the most extensive distribution of any cycad in New South Wales and is found along the coast from the district around Armidale, New South Wales to Bega 700 km south and on the coastal slopes of the Great Dividing Range with some instances on the inland slopes of the range; as far west as the Mudgee district.

[4] Seedlings of Macrozamia communis have a tuber and coralloid roots that rise up above the ground containing cyanobacteria.

These exist in a symbiotic relationship with the cycad by nitrogen fixation.

[4] The seeds of the burrawang are a good source of starch but are poisonous to eat unless treated.
