Elaeocarpus stellaris

Elaeocarpus stellaris is a species of flowering plant in the family Elaeocarpaceae and is endemic to north-eastern Queensland.

It is a tree, sometimes with buttress roots at the base of the trunk, elliptic to egg-shaped leaves, small groups of flowers with greenish-yellow sepals and creamy-white petals, the fruit containing a five-flanged stone.

[2][3] Elaeocarpus stellaris was first formally described in 1969 by Lindsay Stuart Smith in Contributions from the Queensland Herbarium from material he collected Gregory Falls west of Innisfail.

[4][5] This quandong grows in well-developed rainforest at altitudes between 50 and 50 m (160 and 160 ft) in north-eastern Queensland.

[3] This quandong is listed as of "least concern" under the Queensland Government Nature Conservation Act 1992.
