Sideroxylon polynesicum, the keahi or island nesoluma, is a species of flowering plant in the family Sapotaceae. It is found in the Cook (New Zealand), Tubuai (French Polynesia), and Hawaiian Islands (United States).[1] It is threatened by habitat loss.[1]
Taxonomy
This species was first described as Chrysophyllum polynesicum by William Hillebrand in 1888, two years after his demise.[2] Then Henri Ernest Baillon transferred it to the genus Nesoluma, all of whose constituent species were later incorporated into the genus Sideroxylon as a result of phylogenetic analyses.[3]
