Summary

Cupressoid evergreen trees, the fresh branchlets with foliage are mostly held in vertical planes. The leaves are collectively somewhat spanner-like in shape, each etched across one or both surfaces with conspicuous white detailed markings. The pellucid foliage and characteristic white markings particularly distinguishes Austrocedrus.
