Distribution of Leptecophylla oxycedrus

Leptecophylla oxycedrus, commonly referred to as coastal pinkberry[1][2] or crimson berry,[3][4][5] is a medium shrub to large tree[6] native to Tasmania and southern Victoria.[7] It is part of the family Ericaceae and has narrow, pointed leaves, white flowers and pale pink fruits. It was previously classified as a subspecies of Leptecophylla juniperina[8] but has since been raised to the specific level in 2017.[7] The species was originally described in 1805 by Jacques Labillardière in Novae Hollandiae plantarum specimen[9] which was published after his voyage through Oceania.
