Goniothalamus australis

Goniothalamus australis, commonly known as China pine, is a species of plants in the custard apple family Annonaceae found only in the Wet Tropics bioregion of Queensland, Australia.

Flowers are solitary or (rarely) paired, with 3 sepals and 6 petals in two whorls of 3.

The inner petals are much smaller than the outer ones and they are joined laterally, forming a cap over the reproductive organs.

It grows in upland rainforest at altitudes from 600 to 1,200 m (2,000 to 3,900 ft), on the Atherton Tableland and northward to about Cooktown.

[4][5][6] This species has been assessed to be of least concern by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and by the Queensland Government under its Nature Conservation Act.
