Prumnopitys
''Prumnopitys'' is a genus of conifers belonging to the family Podocarpaceae. It includes three species of densely branched, Plant sexuality, dioecious evergreen trees up to 40 metres in height, native to South America and New Zealand. Etymology The name ''Prumnopitys'' comes from the Ancient Greek ' ( ‘hindmost’) and ' ( ‘pine’), referring to the resin duct being behind the midrib. Description The leaves are similar to those of the Taxus, yew, strap-shaped, 1–4 cm long and 2–3 mm broad, with a soft texture; they are green above, and with two blue-green stomatal bands below. The conifer cone, seed cones are highly modified, reduced to a central stem 1–5 cm long bearing several scales; one to five scales are fertile, each bearing a single seed surrounded by fleshy scale tissue, resembling a drupe. These berry-like cone scales are eaten by birds which then Seed dispersal, disperse the seeds in their droppings. Distribution The species are distr ...

Pectinopitys Ferruginoides
''Pectinopitys ferruginoides'' is a species of conifer in the family Podocarpaceae. It is a tree endemic to New Caledonia. It is widespread on Grande Terre, New Caledonia's largest island, and is more common in the south. It grows in humid dense montane rainforest, generally on ultramafic Ultramafic rocks (also referred to as ultrabasic rocks, although the terms are not wholly equivalent) are igneous and meta-igneous rocks with a very low silica content (less than 45%), generally >18% MgO, high FeO, low potassium, and are usua ... substrates, from 700 to 1,400 metres elevation, and occasionally as low as 200 m.

Pectinopitys Ferruginea
''Pectinopitys ferruginea'', commonly known as miro or toromiro, is an evergreen coniferous tree which is endemic to New Zealand. Description It grows up to high, with a trunk up to 1.3 m diameter. The leaves are linear to sickle-shaped, 15–25 mm long and 2–3 mm broad, with downcurved margins. The plants are dioecious with pollen cones being solitary while those of female plants hang from a curved, scaly stalk. The seed cones are highly modified, reduced to a central stem 2–3 cm long bearing 1-3 scales, each scale maturing berry-like, oval, about 20 mm long and 10–15 mm broad, red to purple-red with a soft edible pulp covering the single seed. The seeds are dispersed by the kererū (New Zealand pigeon), which eats the very conspicuous 'berries' and passes the seeds in its droppings. It is found growing on both lowland terrain and on hill slopes throughout the two main islands as well as on Stewart Island / Rakiura (47° S). Miro can live for at ...

Podocarpaceae Genera
Podocarpaceae is a large family of mainly southern hemisphere conifers, known in English as podocarps, comprising about 156 species of evergreen trees and shrubs.James E. Eckenwalder. 2009. ''Conifers of the World''. Portland, Oregon: Timber Press. . It contains 20 genera if '' Phyllocladus'' is included and '' Manoao'' and '' Sundacarpus'' are recognized. The family achieved its maximum diversity in the Cenozoic, making the Podocarpaceae family one of the most diverse in the southern hemisphere. The family is a classic member of the Antarctic flora, with its main centres of diversity in Australasia, particularly New Caledonia, Tasmania, and New Zealand, and to a slightly lesser extent Malesia and South America (primarily in the Andes Mountains). Several genera extend north of the equator into Indochina and the Philippines. ''Podocarpus'' reaches as far north as southern Japan and southern China in Asia, and Mexico in the Americas, and '' Nageia'' into southern China and south ...

Australasian Realm
The Australasian realm is one of eight biogeographic realms that is coincident with, but not (by some definitions) the same as, the geographical region of Australasia. The realm includes Australia, the island of New Guinea (comprising Papua New Guinea and the Indonesian province of Papua), and the eastern part of the Indonesian archipelago, including the island of Sulawesi, the Moluccas (the Indonesian provinces of Maluku and North Maluku), and the islands of Lombok, Sumbawa, Sumba, Flores, and Timor, often known as the Lesser Sundas. The Australasian realm also includes several Pacific island groups, including the Bismarck Archipelago, Vanuatu, the Solomon Islands, and New Caledonia. New Zealand and its surrounding islands are a distinctive sub-region of the Australasian realm. The rest of Indonesia is part of the Indomalayan realm. In the classification scheme developed by Miklos Udvardy, New Guinea, New Caledonia, Solomon Islands and New Zealand are placed in the ...

Sundacarpus
''Sundacarpus'' is a genus of conifers containing a single species ''Sundacarpus amarus'', belonging to the family Podocarpaceae. ''Sundacarpus'' was designated a genus by C.N.Page in 1989; formerly it had been classified variously as a species of ''Podocarpus'' or of '' Prumnopitys''. In Australia it is treated as ''Prumnopitys amara'' (Blume) de Laub. Description ''Sundacarpus amarus'' is a large evergreen tree, in height, with a trunk from in diameter. The leaves are long and narrow. Distribution and habitat ''Sundacarpus amarus'' is native to parts of Australia and Malesia. In Australia, the genus is found only in Queensland, primarily on the Atherton Tableland and adjacent parts of northeastern coastal Queensland. It is quite common in New Guinea, New Britain, and New Ireland, where it is often found in montane forests together with southern beech (''Nothofagus''). ''Sundacarpus amarus'' is also found on the Indonesian islands of Buru, Halmahera, Morotai, Sulawesi, Lom ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
