A genetic analysis of RNA Internal transcribed spacer material found Pouteria australis That was most closely related a pair of species, Pouteria Pouteria cotinifolia and eerwah - the three forming a distinct group of Australian species within the genus.

Pouteria australis is protogynous; That is, the female parts of the tree is mature before the male parts, to promote outcrossing.
