Abstract Hoheria equitum is newly described from the
Poor Knights Islands and Hen and Chickens Islands off the east coast of
Northland, New Zealand. It differs from
H. populnea in its smaller,
glabrescent flowers, and broadly elliptic leaves with recurved margins which
are entire or only shallowly serrulate. The fruit is not known.
