The flowers are arranged in racemes in leaf axils, sometimes reduced to sessile clusters. The sepals are small, joined at the base with 4 triangular lobes and the 4 petals are broadly egg-shaped and joined in pairs at the base of the stamens. Each flower has 2 stamens with a flask-shaped ovary with 2 each with 2 ovules. The style is short with a 2-lobed stigma and the fruit is a dupe containing a single seed.


Taxonomy
The genus Notelaea was first formally described in 1803 by Étienne Pierre Ventenat in Description des plantes nouvelles et peu connues, cultivées dans le jardin de J.-M. Cels, and the first species he described (the type species) was Notelaea longifolia. The genus name ( Noteleia) is formed from two Greek words, notos and elaia, meaning southern olive.

Based on an analysis of phylogenomic data from plastid DNA sequences and three nuclear regions, Dupin et al. discovered that the related Pacific genus Nestegis was , and that genus was with the inclusion of the New Caledonian species in section Notosmanthus, and in 2022 they consolidated Nestegis and Osmanthus sect. Notosmanthus into Notelaea.Julia Dupin, Cynthia Hong-Wa, Yohan Pillon, Guillaume Besnard.
