Banksia kingii Banksia kingii is an extinct species of tree or shrub in the plant genus "Banksia". It is known only from fossil leaves and fruiting "cones" found in Late Pleistocene sediment at Melaleuca Inlet in western Tasmania. These were discovered by Deny King in the workings of his tin mine. The climate was most likely as cool as or cooler than it is at Melaleuca now (an average yearly temperature of 11.5C, a average temperature of the coldest month of 4.5°C, a mean maximum temperature of the warmest month of 20°C)
