Payena endertii H.J. Lam

Protologue: Bull. Jard. Bot. Buitenzorg, sér. 3, 7: 144 (1925).

Synonyms

  • Madhuca lamii Baehni (1965).

Vernacular names

  • Indonesia: balam terung (Sumatra), nyato burung beitis (Kalimantan).

Distribution

Sumatra and Borneo (Kalimantan, Sabah).

Uses

The timber is used as nyatoh, possibly also as bitis.

Observations

  • A large tree up to 40 m tall with bole up to 80 cm in diameter.
  • Leaves ovate-oblong, pubescent beneath.
  • Flowers rather small, 1-1.2 cm long, white.
  • Fruit rounded-ovoid to spherical, 2.2-2.3 cm long, glabrous.

P. endertii is closely related to P. leerii, P. lucida and P. obscura, but it can be distinguished by the long apex of the connective of the stamens and by the typical shape of the fruit. The timber is reported as medium-weight to heavy: in Sabah its density is reported as about 600 kg/m3 at 15% moisture content, in Indonesia 760-1070 kg/m3.

Selected sources

36, 100, 727.
