Tasmania
has six species of Monotoca. These are largish,
erect shrubs. The venation is conspicuous on the lower
surface of the leaf, and usually comprises several more or
less parallel veins with some minor reticulations between
the outer veins.
The species can be hard to distinguish, and the following
key should be treated with caution. The main differences
are in leaf shape, which are distinctive, but hard to
describe.
