Melicytus ramiflorus (māhoe or whiteywood) is a small tree of the family Violaceae endemic to New Zealand. It grows up to 10 metres high with a trunk up to 60 cm in diameter, it has smooth, whitish bark and brittle twigs. The dark-green "alternate" leaves are 5–15 cm long and 3–5 cm wide and their edges are finely serrated (although this feature is less pronounced in younger plants).The plants are dioecious and the small flowers are yellowish in colouration, between 3 and 4 mm in diameter and occur in fascicles, growing straight out from naked twigs- these flowers have a strong, pleasant fragrance. The berries are a striking violet colour when ripe and are more or less spherical with a diameter of between 3 and 4 mm. Flowering occurs in late spring ( southern hemisphere )- and on into summ

  • Melicytus ramiflorus (Maori: Māhoe, englisch: Whitey-Wood) ist eine Pflanzenart aus der Familie der Veilchengewächse (Violaceae). In früheren Studien ermittelte man vier Unterarten von Melicytus ramiflorus: subsp. ramiflorus in Neuseeland, subsp. oblongifolius auf Norfolk Island, subsp. fastigiata auf Fidschi und subsp. samoensis auf Samoa und Tonga. Neuere Studien, vor allem durch Art Whistler legen nahe, dass alle Unterarten als eigene Arten angesehen werden sollten. (de)

It grows up to 10 metres high with a trunk up to 60 cm in diameter, it has smooth, whitish bark and brittle twigs. The dark-green "alternate" leaves are 5–15 cm long and 3–5 cm wide and their edges are finely serrated (although this feature is less pronounced in younger plants).The plants are dioecious and the small flowers are yellowish in colouration, between 3 and 4 mm in diameter and occur in fascicles, growing straight out from naked twigs- these flowers have a strong, pleasant fragrance. The berries are a striking violet colour when ripe and are more or less spherical with a diameter of between 3 and 4 mm. Flowering occurs in late spring ( southern hemisphere )- and on into summer while the berries appear later on in summer and also in autumn. The berries of M. ramiflorus are eaten by a number of native birds, including kererū and tui, while geckos of the genus Naultinus have also been observed to supplement their primarily insectivorous diet with consumption of these berries.It is also a host species for the caterpillars of the New Zealand endemic moth Austramathes purpurea.It is ubiquitous throughout lower altitude New Zealand forests and is frequently seen in areas of regenerating forest.
