Callitris monticola, commonly known as the steelhead or dwarf cypress (a name it shares with several other plants), is a species of conifer in the family Cupressaceae. It is found only in Australia, occurring in the states of Queensland and New South Wales and is considered vulnerable due to its restricted distribution.[2]
