The study of street-tree flammability in eastern Australia supplies the selected fire line for Cupaniopsis anacardioides. Its material was irrigated, a boundary retained under test conditions. Two ecological invasive reports belong to a different status channel. With this narrow source base, the page marks the fire conclusion limited evidence. No non-irrigated test context is added to that evidence line.
The evidence table keeps the study placement visible. Range evidence and related plants support separate comparisons, while the genus page adds botanical context without turning an irrigated shoot result into a claim about every tuckeroo relative.

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.
Native and introduced range evidence
These are exact U.S. botanical-area records from the cited range source. Native and
introduced describe biogeographic relationship, not fire performance or planting approval.
Doubtful and extinct rows stay visible but do not count as current presence.
The lossless worldwide derivative is retained once in the research corpus; object pages repeat only exact U.S. areas needed by the local lens. The JSON twin carries the same page assertions.
Conditions in the fire evidence
These describe tested or rated plant material. They are not horticultural maintenance instructions.
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.
