Cinnamomum kanehirae
Cinnamomum kanehirae (Chinese name niu zhang(牛樟)), also known as small-flowered camphor tree, or stout camphor tree, is a tree within the genus Cinnamomum of the family Lauraceae endemic to Taiwan.
This species is present at 200–2,000 m, mixed with C. micranthum in broad-leaved forests throughout Taiwan.
It is commonly used in carving and manufacturing equipment, and sometimes used in furniture; branches and leaves can also be distilled to obtain the wood's essential oils.
