Hollandaea sayeriana, sometimes named Sayer's silky oak, is a small species of Australian rainforest trees in the plant family Proteaceae.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8]
They are endemic to restricted areas of the rainforests of the Wet Tropics region of northeastern Queensland, in the region of Mounts Bellenden Ker,[9] Bartle Frere and the eastern Atherton Tableland. They grow as understory trees beneath the canopy of lowlands to tablelands rainforests, up to about 800 m (2,600 ft) altitude.[5][6][7][8]
As of January 2014 this species has the official, current, Qld government conservation status of "near threatened" species.[1]
In 1886–87, German-Australian government botanist Ferdinand von Mueller formally scientifically described this species,[3] named after his associate, botanical collector William A. Sayer.[10][11]
