Calamus muelleri, commonly known as lawyer vine, or wait-a-while, is a vine-like climbing palm with sharp hooks along its leaf sheath, leaf edged, and along flagella that extend from the end of each vine. The palm is common in rainforest in northern New South Wales and southern Queensland, especially in National Parks such as Nightcap National Park and Lamington National Park.
