Podocarpus parlatorei

Podocarpus parlatorei is a species of tree in the family Podocarpaceae and native to Argentina and Bolivia, where it grows on steep hillsides on the eastern flanks of the Andes.

[4] The leaves are linear to falcate (sickle-shaped), straight, 2.5 to 9 cm (1.0 to 3.5 in) long, 2 to 3 mm (0.08 to 0.12 in) wide, with an acute pungent apex.

[6] The gray grass mouse (Abrothrix illuteus) lives on steep hillsides amongst the Podocarpus parlatorei and Alnus acuminata trees.

[4] Its international commercial trade has now been banned by its listing in Appendix I of CITES[2] because excessive logging was depleting populations, but it is still harvested for local use.

[4] In the past, this tree was listed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature as being "data deficient", however more recent research has enabled the IUCN to evaluate its status.
