Hopea cagayanensis (Foxw.) v. Slooten

Protologue: Reinwardtia 3: 318 (1956).

Synonyms

  • Balanocarpus cagayanensis Foxw. (1918).

Vernacular names

  • Philippines: narek (Ibanag), narig (Negrito, Ibanag), narik (Ibanag, Iloko).

Distribution

The Philippines (north-eastern Luzon).

Uses

The timber is used as giam, especially for poles and piles and house construction.

Observations

  • A medium-sized tree, bole generally branchless for 8-15 m and with a diameter of 25-50(-70) cm, without prominent buttresses; young parts and domatia densely persistently tawny pubescent.
  • Leaves lanceolate, 8-10 cm × 2.5-4 cm, thin leathery, base unequal, acumen slender, up to 1.5 cm long, venation scalariform, midrib distinctly elevated above, secondary veins 9-12 pairs, arched at 55-65°, slender but prominent beneath.
  • Stamens 15, shorter than the style, in 3 more or less unequal verticils, ovary small, ovoid, tapering into an equally long somewhat narrower stylopodium, style short, columnar.
  • Fruit sepals short, subequal, 2 outer up to 9 mm × 7 mm, incrassate, 3 inner up to 10 mm × 10 mm, obtuse.

H. cagayanensis occurs locally abundantly in semi-evergreen forest at low altitude. The density of the wood is about 920 kg/m3 at 15% moisture content.

Selected sources

175, 258, 579, 599, 748.
