Taxus floridana Nutt. ex Chapm.

Taxus floridana Nutt. ex Chapm.. Taxus floridana, the Florida yew, is a species of yew, endemic to a small area of the Apalachicola River. This species has a restricted extent of occurrence of 24km along the Apalachicola River and resides in the mesophytic forests of northern Florida at altitudes of 15–40 m. It is internationally listed as critically endangered, with a declining population. Although this species was previously listed in the Florida endangered species program, it no longer has legal protection under the U.S. or state endangered species programs. However, the bulk of its very limited historically native range is in protective status at Torreya State Park and the adjacent Nature Conservancy's Apalachicola Bluffs and Ravines Preserve.
