They grow naturally across tropical Africa, south and southeast AsiaIndochinaMalesiaAustralia and western Pacific Islands; including from southern Nigeria east to MadagascarMauritiusSri Lanka and India; from BurmaMalaysia and Thailand through the Malay Peninsula and Vietnam to south ChinaTaiwan and the Philippines; through BorneoIndonesiaTimor and New Guinea, through to the Solomon IslandsNew CaledoniaFijiSamoaTonga and Palau.[2]
They grow up to large evergreen trees of 40–50 m (130–160 ft) tall, and have alternately arranged, pinnate leaves.[2]

Uses and ecology[edit]

Several species have edible nuts, known as galip nut or nangae (C. indicum), pili nut (C. ovatum), or simply canarium nut (C. harveyi and C. indicum). C. indicum are among the most important nut-bearing trees in eastern Indonesia and the Southwest Pacific. C. ovatum is cultivated as a food crop only in the Philippines.[4]
Canarium odontophyllum, known commonly as dabai or kembayau, is a species with a nutritious fruit with a creamy taste. It is hard when raw and may be pickled or softened with hot water when prepared. Many animals feed on the fruit in the wild, such as the red-bellied lemur (Eulemur rubriventer) and the ruffed lemurs (Varecia) of Madagascar's eastern rainforests.
Canarium album produces a fruit consumed in Vietnam, Thailand (where it is known as nam liap (Thaiหนำเลี้ยบ), samo chin(Thaiสมอจีน) or kana (Thaiกาน้า)) and in China (Chinese橄欖) with an appearance of a big olive.
Canarium luzonicum, commonly known as elemi, is a tree native to the Philippines. An oleoresin, which contains Elemicin, is harvested from it.
Superb fruit-doves (Ptilinopus superbus) are known to be fond of the fruit of scrub turpentine (C. australianum), which they swallow whole.[5][6]
