Floydia is a monotypic genus of plants in the macadamia family Proteaceae which is endemic to Australia. The sole described species is Floydia praealta, commonly known as the ball nut. It is a somewhat rare tree found only growing in the rainforests of southeastern Queensland and northeastern New South Wales. The tree has a superficial resemblance to the closely related Macadamia and could be confused with them. The fruit of F. praealta is poisonous.

Description

Floydia praealta is a tree growing to Шаблон:Cvt tall with a trunk up to Шаблон:Cvt diameter. The leaves are mid-green, shiny, glabrous and stiff.Шаблон:R They measure up to Шаблон:Cvt long by Шаблон:Cvt wide and are held on a petiole up to Шаблон:Cvt long.Шаблон:R There are between 10 and 28 pairs of secondary veins and a densely reticulate tertiary venation which are all obvious on both surfaces.Шаблон:R

The inflorescence is a raceme up to Шаблон:Cvt long carrying numerous cream flowers in pairs. The flowers have 4 hairy tepals and are up to Шаблон:Cvt long.Шаблон:R The fruit is a globular, woody follicle around Шаблон:Cvt diameter.Шаблон:R

Taxonomy

The species was formally described in 1862 by Victorian Government Botanist Ferdinand von Mueller based on plant material collected near the Clarence River in northern New South Wales and the Brisbane River in Queensland. In his publication Fragmenta phytographiæ Australiæ Mueller named the plant Helicia praealta. The species was transferred to the genus Macadamia in 1901 by Queensland Colonial Botanist Frederick Manson Bailey and then to Floydia in 1975 by Lawrie Johnson and Barbara Briggs.Шаблон:R
