Note:
C. cuneata is a Fiordland species with shorter leaves. It also looks like C. elatirioides, again a SI sp. Allan Vol 1 would have called it C. banksii which was later merged with C. colensoi. That can range from quite broad/ovate to linear like this in the same area and is usually somewhat brownish coloured. Key features are the glabrous brown stem and denticulate stipule. Theses leaves are too narrow to show the apical notch and hair tip.
