Abstract: Nothofagus cunninghamii (myrtle) has a widespread distribution through the temperate rainforest of southeastern Australia, with some disjunct populations existing in putative glacial refugia. Polymorphic nuclear markers are required to resolve the biogeographic history of the species, and will also be useful for conservation and forestry applications in this and other species of Nothofagus. Fourteen polymorphic microsatellite loci were isolated from N. cunninghamii, with 4-10 alleles amplified in 15 individuals tested. Transferability to other species of Nothofagus was successful, with six loci transferring to all eight other species tested
