""Cinnamomum" lineafolia was originally classified as a cinnamon bush due to the shape of its leaves, though it now appears this resemblance is convergent and it is actually a member of the primitive family Trochodendraceae. This group of primitive eudicots has only two extant members (Trochodendron and Tetracentron), which are unique in lacking the vessel elements in their wood typically thought to be a key feature of flowering plants."

"Cinnamomum" lineafolia was a primitive bush-like tree from the family Trochodendraceae. It was initially classified as a cinnamomum bush, hence its name. Along with its relatives, this plant is unique among eudycots due to lacking vessel elements in their wood, a characteristic almost universal in other flowering plants.
