Korthalsella cylindrica parasitic on Metrosideros. Hawai`i, O`ahu, Ko`olau Mountains, Kaluanui-Ma`akua Ridge.

            
Korthalsella cylindrica (Tieghem) Engler
Hawaiian names: hulumoa, kaumahana

Family: Santalaceae (the sandalwood family)
Habit: a subshrub.
Native, endemic to Kaua`i (?  It seems to me that K. cylindrica occurs on Kaua`i, and is parasitic on Metrosideros there, but the plants are decussately branched, unlike K. cylindrica on the other islands.), O`ahu (Wai`anae Mountains, Ko`olau Mountains), East Moloka`i, Lāna`i, Maui (West Maui, East Maui), and the island of Hawai`i.

Habitat: mesic to wet forest and shrubland.

On O`ahu at least, Korthalsella cylindrica appears to be host specific to Metrosideros, and I have seen no other Korthalsella taxa parasitizing Metrosideros on O`ahu.
