''Athertonia diversifolia'', commonly known as Atherton Oak, is a small to medium-sized rainforest tree of the Proteaceae family found in northern Queensland, Australia. It is endemic to the Atherton Tablelands where it is widespread. A relative of the macadamia, it has potential as an ornamental tree and has an edible nut. ==Taxonomy== ''Athertonia diversifolia'' was first described by Queensland Government Botanist C.T. White in 1918, who gave it the specific name derived from the Latin ''diversi-'' "different" and ''folium'' "leaves", from the fact that different-shaped leaves may be found on the one plant. He placed it in the genus ''Helicia''. The Dutch botanist Hermann Sleumer placed it in the genus ''Hicksbeachia'' in 1955, where it stayed until Johnson and Briggs placed it in its own genus although conceded it was related to the former genus. Thus, it is the only member of the monotypic genus ''Athertonia''. Common names include Atherton almond, Atherton Oak, White Oak, or cream silky oak.
