Atalaya multiflora
Atalaya multiflora, known as the broad leaved whitewood, is a rare and endangered rainforest tree of the soapberry family native to eastern Australia.
Its habitat is in the drier rainforest areas, often on rocky slopes of basalt. However, it is also seen in subtropical lowland rainforest growing on alluvial soils. It was described by prolific botanist George Bentham in his Flora Australiensis in 1863, and was given the specific name multiflora because of the numerous flowers.
