Where available the sections below provide a biological profile for the species. Biological profiles vary in age and content across species, some are no longer being updated and are retained as archival content. These profiles are still displayed as they contain valuable information for many species. The Profile Update section below indicates when the biological profile was last updated for some species.

Threatened Species Strategy
Caley's grevillea is one of 30 plants that the Australian Government has prioritised resource allocation to support the species recovery effort. Australia’s Threatened Species Strategy includes targets (i) to improve trajectories of 30 threatened plants by 2020, and (ii) to insure all known threatened plants against extinction by 2020. Priority actions that may support the species include:
- protecting existing populations
- community engagement and education
- removing invasive weeds
- facilitating ecological burns every 5–15 years to promote germination.
About Caley's grevillea
Caley's grevillea is a spectacular grevillea that grows only in the northern suburbs of Sydney in the Terrey Hills area. It can be found in and around school grounds and other community facilities including in the gardens of the Baha’i Temple at Ingleside. The grevilleas here are being carefully maintained by the community.
This species is threatened by habitat loss, invasive weeds, changed fire regimes and human disturbance.
