Type species

Pennantia is the sole genus in the plant family Pennantiaceae. In older classifications, it was placed in the family Icacinaceae. Most authorities have recognized three or four species, depending on whether they recognized Pennantia baylisiana as a separate species from Pennantia endlicheri. Mabberley, however, has recognized only two species. Pennantia is native to New Zealand, Norfolk Island, and northeast Australia.

Species

The following four species were recognized by Gardner and de Lange in 2002.
