  abstract = {{P}odocarp species and genus richness is higher in the {M}alesian region than anywhere else on earth, with maximum genus richness in {N}ew {G}uinea and {N}ew {C}aledonia and maximum species richness in {N}ew {G}uinea and {B}orneo. {M}embers of the {P}odocarpaceae occur across the whole geographic and altitudinal range occupied by forests and shrublands in the region. {T}here is a strong tendency for podocarp dominance of vegetation to be restricted either to high-altitude sites close to the limit of tree growth or to other sites that might restrict plant growth in terms of water relations and nutrient supply (e.g., skeletal soils on steep slopes and ridges, heath forests, ultramafic parent material). {A}lthough some species are widespread in lowland forests, they are generally present at very low density, raising questions concerning their regeneration ecology and competitive ability relative to co-occurring angiosperm tree species. {A} number of species in the region are narrowly distributed, being restricted to single islands or mountain tops, and are of conservation concern. {O}ur current understanding of the distribution and ecology of {M}alesian podocarps is reviewed in this chapter, and areas for further research are identified.
