Toronia
Torus
Toronia is a monotypic genus of evergreen tree in the family Proteaceae, containing the single species Toronia toru, which is endemic to New Zealand. The genus was established in 1975 by Lawrie Johnson and Barbara G. Briggs, separating this species from the related genus Persoonia, though phylogenetic studies now indicate Toronia is nested within Persoonia.
