Helicia nortoniana, also named Norton's silky oak, is a species of rainforest trees, of north–eastern Queensland, Australia, and constitutes part of the flowering plant family Proteaceae.[3][4][5][6][7]

Botanists know of them growing naturally only (endemic) in the rainforests of the Wet Tropics region, from about 0 to 1,000 m (0 to 3,281 ft) altitude.[3][4][5][6][7]

They have been recorded growing up to about 20 m (66 ft) tall.[6][7]
