Arytera distylis
Arytera distylis, known as the two-leaved coogera or twin-leaved coogera is a rainforest tree of eastern Australia. It grows by streams or in seaside rainforests. It occurs from the Orara River in the Mid North Coast region of New South Wales, extending up to Maryborough in southeast Queensland.
The twin leaf foliage makes identification of this plant fairly straightforward. The generic name Arytera is from the Ancient Greek for 'cup', referring to the cup-shaped fruit valves. The specific epithet distylis is from Latin and refers to the two styles in the flower.
