About

Psychotria carronis, commonly known as the black grape, is a flowering plant in the coffee family. The specific epithet honours William Carron (1823–1876) who collected plants on Lord Howe Island for the Royal Botanic Gardens, Sydney.

Where it grows

The species is endemic to Australia’s subtropical Lord Howe Island in the Tasman Sea. It occurs in sheltered forest, mainly at elevations of 100–400 m, around Mounts Lidgbird and Gower at the southern end of the island.
