Rhytidosporum inconspicuum (common name alpine appleberry) is an inconspicuous, rhizomatous specios of shrub in the pittosporum family, Pittosporaceae. The species is found in New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania.[3]
The species was first formally described in 1999 by Lindy Cayzer, Michael Crisp and Ian Telford, when they published a revision of the genus, Rhytidosporum.[1][2] The species epithet, inconspicuum, was given because the plant is inconspicuous when not in flower or fruit.[3][4]
