Taxus

not marked as a favorite taxon Taxus floridana Nuttall ex Chapman. Common name: Florida Yew. Habitat: Mesic bluffs and ravines. Distribution: Endemic to Panhandle FL. Reports from s. GA (e.g., Mellinger 1984) appear to be speculative. Sometimes reported to also occur along the east coast of Mexico (POWO 2024), but this usually interpreted as a different taxon.
