Sandoricum dasyneuron Baill.

Tree 8–10(–25) m, bole 10–25 cm diam. Bark smooth; wood light red. Leafy twigs c. 6–8 mm diam. Indumentum ferrugineous. Leaves 25–52 cm long; petiole 10–20.5 cm, ± pilose, base ± swollen. Leaflets broadly ovate, glabrous adaxially, ± pilose ab-axially especially on veins, bases acute to subcuneate, apices acuminate, acumen to 15 mm, costae (10–)12 or 13 on each side, inarched only near margin, apical leaflet 17–24 by 12–16 cm, laterals 16–20 by 10–11 cm, petiolules 3–15 mm on lateral leaflets, 4–10 cm 0n apical. Thyrses 2–13 cm long, weakly sweetly scented, produced with new leaves over at least 6 nodes, sparsely branched often from very close to base, primary branches to 6 cm long, squarrose, bearing fascicles of 1–3 flowers; axes densely short-tomen-tose; bracts c. 7 mm long, narrowly triangular, densely pubescent, caducous; bracteoles c. l–2 mm, narrowly triangular, densely pubescent, caducous; pedicels c. 5–7 mm, articulated with pseudopedicel, l(–2) mm long, continuous with calyx. Calyx c. 4 mm long, 4–5 mm diam., campanulate, glabrous, dark purplish brown, splitting into 5 ir-regular obtuse lobes to 1 mm deep, margin ciliate. Petals 5, 8–9 by c. 3 mm, spathu-late, glabrous, greenish-white, apices acute. Staminal tube fleshy, white, swollen at mouth, ± pubescent without, pilose within, margin with 5 erose lobes; anthers 10, 1.5 mm, in two ranks, the more distal opposite lobes, the more proximal inserted between them, all weakly exserted. Disk c. 2 mm long, narrowing towards mouth, membrane-ous., glabrous, margin irregularly laciniate. Ovary and style glabrous; stigmatic lobes c. 1.5 mm long. Drupe globose-pyriform, densely and minutely fulvous tomentellous, when mature (non vidi) 10 cm diam., multi-ribbed longitudinally (Beccari, l.c.); py-renes at least 3, bean-shaped. Seeds (non vidi) 2.5 cm long (C.DC., l.c.).

It is a tropical plant.
