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.
