Conifers of New Zealand
This is a brief and incomplete guide to the native conifer trees of New Zealand.
When I get time, I'll complete it!
Miro
Prumnopitys ferruginea (Miro) is an evergreen coniferous tree which is endemic to New Zealand. Before the genus Prumnopitys was distinguished, it was treated in the related genus Podocarpus as Podocarpus ferrugineus.
Mataī
Prumnopitys taxifolia (Mataī or Black pine) is an endemic New Zealand coniferous tree that grows on the North Island and South Island. It also occurs on Stewart Island/Rakiura (47 °S) but is uncommon there.
