Tree up to 30 m tall, sometimes with buttresses up to 60 cm high. Leafy twigs 2.5-4 mm thick, densely pale brown (sub)hirsute; internodes hollow; periderm mostly persistent but flaking off below the leaves. Leaves spirally arranged (to subdistichous); lamina subobovate to oblong or to elliptic (or to subpandurate), (6-)10-20 by (2.5-)3-9 cm, symmetric to slightly asymmetric, subcoriaceous to chartaceous, apex acuminate (to subcaudate), base subcordate or (obtuse and) emarginate, margin entire; upper surface sparsely, at least in the lower half of the midrib densely, pale brown hirtellous, smooth, lower surface ± densely pale brown hirtellous to subtomentose on the main veins; cystoliths only beneath; lateral veins 9-16 pairs, often most or some of them furcate far from the margin, the lower lateral veins often not distinctly loop-connected, the basal pair slightly distinct, tertiary venation scalariform; waxy glands in the axils of one or both of the basal lateral veins (conspicuous or inconspicuous) and often also smaller ones in furcations of the lateral veins; petiole 0.5-1.5(-2) cm long, pale brown hirtellous to hirsute, the epidermis persistent; stipules 1-2.5 cm long, (rather) densely pale brown to yellowish hirsute to hirtellous (to subvillous), caducous. Figs axillary or just below the leaves, solitary (or in pairs) (or also cauliflorous?); peduncle 0.4-2.5 cm long; basal bracts 3, (sub)verticillate, 5-6 mm long and early caducous or c. 2.5 mm long and not early caducous; receptacle depressed-globose to subpyriform, 1.8-2.5(-3) or c. 1.3 cm diam. when dry, 2-3.5(-5) cm diam. when fresh, up to 1(-1.5) cm long stipitate, ± densely (especially towards the base and around the ostiole) to sparsely (if so, then especially in the middle part) yellowish to whitish subvillous to subhirsute to hirtellous, ± distinctly ribbed, without lateral bracts, yellowish (?) at maturity, apex ± convex to flat (or concave), ostiole (3-)4-5 mm diam., umbonate or flat; internal hairs copious, whitish or yellowish.
