Biology
The fact that Macrozamia viridis has an occurrence at only two locations means that it qualifies for Endangered status. The population trend of the species is now decreasing. They can also be found in terrestrial environments.[2]
Location
Macrozamia viridis can be found at the Wyberba and Girraween area in the south of the Darling Downs district of Queensland, Australia. This species of plants grow on sandy soils over granite in moderately wet eucalypt woodlands.[2]

gollark: This works for me, but it doesn't always. Someone making ImageMagick may have to do boring unfun stuff to keep it usable, and may not be paid.
gollark: Well, in my case, I make random stuff which is "useful" to me and release it upon an unsuspecting world in case someone wants it.
gollark: That still doesn't provide much of an incentive to make intellectual property versus just not doing that, but it would help I guess.
