Calamus muelleri
Calamus muelleri, commonly known as lawyer vine, or wait-a-while, is a vine-like climbing palm with sharp hooks along its leaf sheath, leaf edged, and along flagella that extend from the end of each vine. The palm is common in rainforest in northern New South Wales and southern Queensland, especially in National Parks such as Nightcap National Park and Lamington National Park.
It flowers and fruits in all months of the year.Taxonomy
It was first described in 1875 by Hermann Wendland, who described it from specimens collected by Hermann Beckler on the Clarence River, from the Brisbane and Richmond Rivers by J.A. Henderson, and from Moreton Bay.
