The only known population occurs at the foot of Mount Stuart near Townsville in Queensland, Australia.[1][2] The species grows to between 5 and 12 metres high often with multiple trunks that have a mottled flaking bark including grey, grey-brown and/or pink colouration. The leaves are simple and opposite and are 5.5 to 9 cm long and 1.5 to 3.8 cm wide.[1] The white flowers appear in clusters of 10 and have 56 to 65 stamens. Flowering is induced by the first significant rainfall of the wet season, appearing four weeks later.[1] The distinctive fruits are capsules with four wings that appear in clusters and fade from pink to white and dry to brown.[1] The species was formally described in 2012.[3][4] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web | url= http://sgaptownsville.org.au/Backhousia-tetraptera.html | date= 2012 | title= Backhousia tetraptera | work= The Society for Growing Australian Plants Townsville Branch Inc. | accessdate= 29 June 2014 }} {{Taxonbar|from=Q17985705}}2. ^{{cite web | url= http://www.sgaptownsville.org.au/Mystery-Tree.html | date= 2012 | title= Mystery Tree | work= The Society for Growing Australian Plants Townsville Branch Inc. | accessdate= 29 June 2014 }} 3. ^1 {{APNI|name=Backhousia tetraptera Jackes|id=307644 }} 4. ^{{cite journal | last1= Harrington | first1= Mark G. | last2= Jackes | first2= Betsy R. | last3= Barrett | first3= M.
