Cyanea horrida
Cyanea horrida, the prickly cyanea or hāhā nui, is a small, prickly tree from the Campanulaceae family which grows roughly 1–3 m (3.3–9.8 ft) which is endemic to east Maui. It is critically endangered with an unknown amount of specimens currently in existence. C. horrida is pollinated by honeycreeper birds.
Cyanea horrida is found in high-altitude rainforests and cliffs, above 1,500 m (4,900 ft) in elevation, in an approximately 13,934 ha (34,430 acres) area along the slopes of Haleakalā, mostly in the east-to-northeast regions.
