Denhamia is a genus of plants within the family Celastraceae, with all species endemic to eastern and northern Australia. The species inhabit a variety of environments, from rainforest to semi-arid savanna. All species grow as shrubs or small trees up to 10 metres in height. The genus is composed of nine species, with two currently unnamed species: *''Denhamia celastroides'' *''Denhamia moorei'' *''Denhamia obscura'' *''Denhamia oleaster'' *''Denhamia parviflora'' *''Denhamia pittosporoides'' * *''Denhamia pittosporoides subsp. pittosporoides'' * *''Denhamia pittosporoides subsp. angustifolia'' *''Denhamia viridissima *''Denhamia'' sp. Jardine River *''Denhamia'' sp. Junee Tableland Some authors regard Denhamia as a paraphyletic genus which should properly include the Australasian ''Maytenus'' species. ==References== McKenna, M.J., M.P. Simmons, C.D.
