About

Xylosma koghiensis (syn. Lasiochlamys koghiensis) is a species of flowering plant in the family Salicaceae, endemic to New Caledonia. Formerly a member of Lasiochlamys, the name was reinstated in 2023 when the genus was transferred to Xylosma. It is listed as a protected species by the National Natural Heritage Inventory.

Where it grows

The range of Xylosma koghiensis is restricted to New Caledonia, extending across southeastern Grande Terre, occurring across the communes of Boulouparis, Dumbéa, Le Mont-Dore, Païta, Thio, and Yaté. Notable localities where it is present include Mont Do of the Boulouparis commune; Mont Koghi of the Dumbéa commune; Montagne des Sources of the Le Mont-Dore commune; Mont Dzumac of the Païta commune; and Mont Sindoa of the Thio commune. Outside of its native range, it has been preserved from Vietnam at Núi Chứa Chan, a mountain in Đồng Nai province.
