Nothofagus betuloides, Magellan's beech[1] or guindo, is a tree native to southern Patagonia.

In 1769, Sir Joseph Banks collected a specimen of the tree in Tierra del Fuego during Captain Cook's first voyage.[3]

Its occurrence on Hornos Island earns it the distinction of being the southernmost tree on Earth.[4]
