From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Alectryon excelsus, commonly known as tītoki, is a shiny-leaved tree native to New Zealand. It is in the family Sapindaceae. It lives in coastal and lowland forests throughout most of the North Island and from Banks Peninsula to central Westland in the South Island.
Pākehā initially called it New Zealand oak, but as with many New Zealand native trees, the Māori name is now more common.
