This is one of those instances where the rare listing on Naturemapr is a little bit misleading. Ozothamnus cupressoides was once thought to be quite rare in the ACT (recorded at only 3 sites), although i must admit recent records suggest that it is significantly more common that initally suspected. It has always been reasonbly commonly and widely distributed throughout Kosciusko NP. The name Kerosene bush is derived exactly how you've envisiged; the plant is highly aromatic and oily which lends very well to starting fires. :)
