Scaphium longiflorum Ridley
- Protologue: Journ. Roy. As. Soc. Straits Br. 73: 143 (1916).
Synonyms
- Scaphium velutinum Kosterm. (1953).
Distribution
Peninsular Malaysia; perhaps also East Kalimantan.
Uses
The timber is used as kembang semangkok.
Observations
- A fairly large tree up to 36 m tall with shallowly fissured bole up to 70 cm in diameter and fairly large, thin buttresses.
- Leaves oblong to obovate, 10-23 cm × 6-12 cm, rounded to broadly cuneate at base, blunt to rounded, sometimes shortly acuminate at apex, with 7-10 pairs of secondary veins, velvety yellowish pubescent to glabrous beneath, petiole up to 8.5 cm long.
- Fruit up to 15 cm long.
- Seed c. 18 mm long, hairy.
Unlike other Scaphium species, S. longiflorum occurs scattered in lowland swamp forest. The density of the timber is about 515 kg/m3 at 15% moisture content.
Selected sources
190, 376, 431, 779.
