Horsfieldia superba

Myristicaceae.

 

From Flora Malesiana, Ser I, Vol. 14 (2000) Field notes:

Bole straight; bark longitudinally fissured, dippled or cracked; bark slash brittle, gritty; slash wood soft, whitish or yellowish. Leaves glossy above, becoming

dull on drying. Flowers bright yellow, smell unpleasant or of ripe pears, visited by bees. Fruits globose, (greenish) yellow, or orange.
