Wikipedia Abstract

Podocarpus cunninghamii is a species of conifer in the Podocarpaceae family, commonly known as Hall's tōtara, mountain tōtara or thin-barked tōtara. Previously known as Podocarpus hallii, it can also be found around mountains growing around the base within a forest region. It is found only in New Zealand. P. cunninghamii is distinguished from the more widely known lowland tōtara by its thinner bark, longer juvenile leaves and distribution at higher altitudes.
