Distribution and Habitat
Ficus rubiginosa occurs from north Queensland southwards along the eastern coastline of Australia to the vicinity of Bega on the south coast of New South Wales. It is found on the edges of rainforest and gullies and rocky hillsides. It is found on limestone outcrops in Kanangra-Boyd National Park. Fig seedlings often arise in cracks in stone in cliffs and rock faces in natural environments, and in brickwork on buildings and elsewhere in the urban environment.

Famous quotes containing the words distribution and/or habitat:
“In this distribution of functions, the scholar is the delegated intellect. In the right state, he is, Man Thinking. In the degenerate state, when the victim of society, he tends to become a mere thinker, or, still worse, the parrot of other men’s thinking.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Nature is the mother and the habitat of man, even if sometimes a stepmother and an unfriendly home.”
—John Dewey (1859–1952)
