Is there a difference?

17 years ago

Does anyone know whether Podocarpus falcatus and P. gracilior are synonymous? Because they look pretty identical to me! I was looking at someones photos on Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/flora/2844059/in/photostream/

and could swear the tree that he has named as P. gracilior is identical to a P. falcatus (Outeniqua Yellowood).
