Taxus is a genus of coniferous trees or shrubs known as yews in the family Taxaceae.[1] Yews occur around the globe in temperate zones of the northern hemisphere, northernmost in Norway and southernmost in the South Celebes. Some populations exist in tropical highlands.[2]
The oldest known fossil species are from the Early Cretaceous.[3]
