Macrozamia is a genus of around forty species of cycads, family Zamiaceae, all of which are endemic to Australia. Many parts of the plant have been utilised for food and material, most of which is toxic if not processed correctly.
Macrozamia moorei is a cycad in the family Zamiaceae, native to Queensland (Australia).
Macrozamia douglasii is a species of plant in the family Zamiaceae. It is endemic to Queensland, Australia.
Macrozamia elegans is a species of plant in the family Zamiaceae. It is endemic to New South Wales, Australia.
Macrozamia fawcettii is a species of plant in the family Zamiaceae. It is endemic to New South Wales, Australia.
Macrozamia flexuosa is a species of plant in the family Zamiaceae. It is endemic to New South Wales, Australia.
Macrozamia fraseri is a species of plant in the family Zamiaceae. It is endemic to the south west of Western Australia, and restricted largely to the sandy soils of the Swan Coastal Plain and Geraldton Sandplains. The range of Macrozamia fraseri overlaps that of Macrozamia riedlei. The Noongar peoples know the plant as djiridji.
Macrozamia glaucophylla is a species of cycad from the genus Macrozamia and the family Zamiaceae. Endemic to New South Wales, Australia, this species has features that resembles palms, although both species are taxonomically quite different. The current population trend of Macrozamia glaucophylla is stable with 2,500 to 10,000 mature individuals. The species are found in several habitats including forest and savanna. Ecologically, Macrozamia glaucophylla lives in terrestrial system, a land-based community of organisms where the biotic and abiotic components interact in the given area.
Macrozamia lomandroides is a species of plant in the family Zamiaceae. It is endemic to Australia. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical dry forests.
Macrozamia longispina is a species of plant in the family Zamiaceae. It is endemic to Australia.
Macrozamia lucida is a species of plant in the family Zamiaceae. It is endemic to Australia.
Macrozamia miquelii, is a species of cycad in the plant family Zamiaceae. It is endemic to Queensland and New South Wales in Eastern Australia. Located within sclerophyll forests dominated by eucalyptus trees, the cycad grows on nutrient-poor soils. It is recognised within the Zamiaceae family for its, medium height at 1 m, intermediate size of male and female cones and lighter green leaves compared to other cycads within the plant family of Zamiaceae. The seeds have an orange red sarcotesta which attracts fauna consumption, allowing a mutualistic seed dispersal for the cycad. These seeds are also edible for human consumption if prepared correctly to remove the toxins.
Macrozamia mountperriensis is a species of plant in the family Zamiaceae endemic to the area around Mount Perry in Queensland; however, it is not considered threatened due to its large population in the area. The species was discovered by colonial botanists including Frederick Manson Bailey and James Keys in the late 1800s. All members of the Zamiaceae family are considered to be poisonous.

Macrozamia polymorpha is a species of plant in the family Zamiaceae. It is endemic to New South Wales, Australia.
Macrozamia spiralis is a species of cycad in the family Zamiaceae. It is endemic to New South Wales in eastern Australia, where it is found in sclerophyll forest on low-nutrient soils. Plants generally lack a trunk and have 2–12 leaves that range up to 100 cm (40 in) in length.
Macrozamia stenomera is a species of plant in the family Zamiaceae. It is endemic to New South Wales, Australia.
Macrozamia viridis is a species of plant in the family Zamiaceae. It is endemic to Australia
