Podocarpus cunninghamii is a species of conifer in the Podocarpaceae family, commonly known as Hall's tōtara, mountain tōtara or thin-barked tōtara. It is also known as Podocarpus hallii [1] can also be found around mountains growing around the base within a forest region.
It is found only in New Zealand.
P. cunninghamii is distinguished from the more widely known lowland tōtara by its thinner bark,[2] longer juvenile leaves and distribution at higher altitudes.[3][4]
