Biological flora of New Zealand 9.Beilschmiedia tawa(A. Cunn.) Benth. et Hook. F. ex Kirk (Lauraceae) Tawa

Abstract
Morphological and anatomical descriptions of Beilschmiedia tawa are given together with information relevant to its ecology, a distribution map based on its presence or absence in grid squares, and bibliographic references to other informaion. B. tawa is one of the main canopy-forming trees in the lowland and low hill forests of the North Island and is also one of the main merchantable hardwoods. It has a good capacity to regenerate in shade or small canopy gaps, but is sensitive to exposure, tending to deteriorate in intensively logged forests.
