Ileostylus micranthus
Ileostylus micranthus, commonly known as green mistletoe pikirangi; pirinoa; pirirangi; pirita; small-flowered mistletoe, is a species of mistletoe in the family Loranthaceae.
Ileostylus micranthus occurs on Norfolk Island with a status of vulnerability under The Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999. Ileostylus micranthus arrived on Norfolk Island from New Zealand in the 1930s, apparently unaided. There are few records of Ileostylus on Norfolk Island but a larger abundance in New Zealand, where it can be found throughout the North Island, South Island and Stewart Island.
