Lophozonia cunninghamii

Lophozonia cunninghamii, the myrtle beech, is an evergreen tree native to Tasmania and Victoria, Australia. It grows mainly in the temperate rainforests, but also grows in alpine areas. It is not related to the Myrtle family. It is often referred to as Tasmanian Myrtle within the timber industry. L. cunninghamii was known as Nothofagus cunninghamii prior to 2013. The change in name from Nothofagus to Lophozonia is controversial and does not need to be accepted.
