}}Rhodamnia whiteana, known as the cliff malletwood or White's malletwood is a sub-tropical rainforest plant of eastern Australia.[1] It is named in honour of the botanist C.T.White. The Generic name Rhodamnia is derived from the Greek Rhodon which means "rose". And aminon, "bowl" where the blood of lambs was poured after sacrifice. It refers to the bowl shaped calyx tubes.[2] Cliff malletwood occurs on the edge of sub tropical rainforest or dry rainforest. Often associated with Hoop Pine, on shallow basalt soil in high rainfall areas. Particularly on the state border of New South Wales and Queensland. A small to mid-sized tree with a dense canopy, up to 20 metres high and a stem diameter of 35 cm. Often multi-stemmed, with up to 12 stems from the same root base. Leaves are 5 to 9.5 cm long, 1.5 to 3 cm wide Dark green above, pale or whitish below. The leaf stalk is grooved, 5 to 10 mm long. Oil dots may clearly be seen under a lens.
