What plants did the Maori make extinct?

The Māori people of New Zealand are believed to have contributed to the extinction of several plant species, primarily through deforestation and habitat alteration for agriculture and settlement. Notable examples include the native kōwhai and certain species of the genus Māhoe. Additionally, the introduction of invasive species and the overharvesting of certain plants for food and resources also played a role in the decline of native flora. However, the exact list of extinct plants remains uncertain due to limited historical records.
