'''''Cryptocarya''''' is a [[genus]] of [[evergreen]] [[tree]]s belonging to the Laurel family, [[Lauraceae]]. The genus includes more than 350 species, distributed through the [[Neotropic]], [[Afrotropic]], [[Indomalaya]], and [[Australasia ecozone]]s. ''C. alba'', the [[Cryptocarya alba|Peumo]], is the most common evergreen tree in the [[Chilean Matorral]] [[ecoregion]] of central [[Chile]] and produces edible reddish fruits. ''C. massoia'' is used commercially to produce [[essential oil]]s.
