Halocarpus bidwillii (Bog Pine or Mountain Pine; syn. Dacrydium bidwillii) is a species of conifer in the family Podocarpaceae, native to New Zealand. It grows from Coromandel to the extreme south; as the latitude increases, so it is found at lower altitudes.
It is an evergreen shrub favouring both bogs and dry stony ground, seldom growing to more than 3.5 m high. The leaves are scale-like on adult plants, 1-2 mm long, arranged spirally on the shoots; young seedlings and occasional shoots on older plants have soft strap-like leaves 5-10 mm long and 1-1.5 mm broad. The seed cones are highly modified, berry-like, with a white aril surrounding the single 2-3 mm long seed.
