Nestegis cunninghamii, commonly called black maire is a native tree of New Zealand.
N. cunninghamii grows to over 20 metres high, and has long, leathery leaves that have a recessed mid-rib. The tree has rough, cork-like bark, and produces red or yellow fruits.
Black maire is now only found in small areas of North Island forest because of its high value as a hard timber and for firewood.[2]

It is necessary to know how large the bias is when using Caucasian SF-based prediction equations Africans, as no specific equations exist. Our first aim was to test the validity of the equation of Durnin & Womersley for predicting body density from SF in Africans. The second aim was to determine the effect of calculating percentage body fat (%BF) from body density using a black-specific formula rather than the Siri equation, thus taking into account the higher fat-free mass (FFM) density in blacks than in whites. A total of 196 African women volunteered. Mean age was 29.5 (sd 8.7) years and mean BMI was 22.5 (sd 4.6) kg/m2. We compared body density values predicted from SF with those measured by air-displacement plethysmography, and %BF values obtained from body density using the Siri equation or the black-specific calculation. The bias (reference minus prediction) was 0.0100 kg/cm3 in body density (P<10(-4)) and 6.5 % BF (P<10(-4)), and the error (sd of the bias) 0.0097 kg/l and 4.5 % BF. With the black-specific equation, the bias was reduced by 1.9 % BF, while error remained similar. As the %BF prediction required an SF-based equation followed by a body density-based calculation, the lack of validity we observed in Africans may be due to known differences between blacks and whites in the distribution of subcutaneous adipose tissue and, as demonstrated, in the FFM density. Equations thus need to be established using SF values specific to Africans.
