Endiandra is a genus of approximately 100 species of plants, mainly trees in the laurel family Lauraceae. They have a broad distribution across South East Asia, Australia and into the western Pacific Ocean.
In Australia, they are often used as screen trees due to the thick foliage of a number of their species. Quite a few of the Australian species are endangered.
