Podocarpus macrophyllus (Kusamaki or Inumaki) is a conifer in the genus Podocarpus family Podocarpaceae. It is the northernmost species of the genus native to southern Japan and southern and eastern China. Kusamaki (クサマキ) and Inumaki (犬槇) are Japanese names for this tree and Kusamaki is increasingly being used as the English name as well replacing the old botanically inaccurate names Buddhist Pine and Fern Pine (it is not a pine).
