Catalepidia is a monotypic genus in the family Proteaceae which is endemic to Queensland, Australia. The sole described species is Catalepidia heyana, commonly known as '''Hey's nut oak'. It is a medium sized tree growing up to about tall, and is found only in upland rainforest above on granite soils, ranging from the Windsor Tableland to the Atherton Tableland.
==Taxonomy== The species was first formally described by Frederick Manson Bailey, and published in 1901 in his book "The Queensland Flora". His description was based on plant material collected by himself in 1889 from Palm Camp on Mount Bellenden Ker. Bailey placed the new species in the genus Helicia, and named it Helicia heyana. In 1955 the species was transferred to the genus Macadamia by Dutch botanist Hermann Otto Sleumer and finally to the newly erected genus Catalepidia by Peter Henry Weston in 1995.
