''Cryptocarya williwilliana'' is a shrub or small rainforest tree and is commonly known as the small leaved laurel. It is confined to dry rainforest on steep rocky limestone slopes or at the base of limestone cliffs. It grows in remote areas at an altitude of 250 to 800 metres in the Macleay River valley near Kempsey, Australia. Maximum height is around 6 metres. The small leaved laurel is considered rare, with a ROTAP rating of 2RCi. This plant has been described and studied by Bernie Hyland and Alexander Floyd. The leaves are veiny, ovate and attractive, between 1.5 and 4 cm in diameter. Faintly scented white flowers form between October and January. A black drupe forms in late summer and early autumn. Germination from fresh seed is slow but reliable. ==References== * Floyd, A.G., ''Rainforest Trees of Mainland South-eastern Australia'', Inkata Press 1989, ISBN 0-909605-57-2 *(【引用サイトリンク】work=PlantNET - NSW Flora Online ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cryptocarya williwilliana」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
