The Newnes Plateau Banksia (Banksia conferta subsp. penicillata) is a plant only described in 1981 though collected in the 1970s. It was first described on the Newnes Plateau in the southernmost part of the Wollemi National Park, though more recent collections have widened its distribution, with the northernmost occurrence upon Mt Monundilla.

It is the southern subspecies of Banksia conferta, though has been considered a full species by some. It seems to share affinities with Banksia paludosa subsp. astrolux.
