Note: Sometimes placed in its own monotypic family Phyllocladaceae Bessey Nebraska Univ. Stud., 7: 325. (1907), but see Sudianto et al. (2017). New Zealand botanists always favour Phyllocladus alpinus as a separate species not a variety of Phyllocladus trichomanoides (Wassilieff, 2021 cf. Govaerts et al., 2021).
