The record is limited evidence. That classification follows the accepted coverage shown by the current source rows, without adding test conditions or measurements not present for Alectryon oleifolius.
Cattle Bush is also on-list. The recommendation has its own traceable basis in the listing evidence, distinct from the role of the named plant reference in establishing the record's lineage.

How to read this page
The status above is computed from the cited rows below: independent recommendations can support a fire-resistant result, an avoid row can produce keep-away, and disagreement stays visible as conflict. Placement notes preserve each source’s own scheme rather than translating unlike rules into one scale. This is evidence about a plant, not permission to plant it in every part of the defensible space; Zone 0 remains noncombustible.
The evidence
Grouped by what each source concluded. Primary evidence rated the plant itself
(a lab, field program, or original curation); corroboration compiled or
republished another source's rating and resolves to its root lineage.
2 cited rows from this source; its identity, lineage and tier are stated once.
