Kauai Cyrtandra (Cyrtandra olona)
Description
Cyrtandra olona was a Hawaiian endemic confined to the island of Kaua-i. It is only known from the holotype collection made by Forbes in 1909 in the Wahiawa Mountains. This taxon is assessed as Extinct. It has not been seen since 1909 and was probably driven to extinction through the impacts on non-native plant and animal species.
