Family Sapotaceae:
*[[''[[Manilkara bidentata'']] '' (DC.) A. Chev. (syn. ''Mimusops bidentata'' DC., ''Mimusops balata'' Gaertn.) - Balata, balata verdadeira, bulletwood tree
Genuine balata comes from ''Manilkara bidentata'' although the term balata is sometimes used in a wider sense to include other non-elastic gums such as maçaranduba (from ''[[Manilkara huberi]]'') and coquirana (from ''Ecclinusa balata'') <font color=#901040>(Accepted name : ''[[Chrysophyllum sanguinolentum]]'')</font>.
