grows naturally in the south of the Equator with its natural distribution found in Indonesia, the …

Dipterocarps are one of the most important tree families in the lowland forests of Southeast
Asia and are somewhat unusual among tropical trees in that they form ectomycorrhizal (E c …

The Dipterocarpaceae is the emblematic family of South-east Asian tropical rain forests and
many of the seasonally dry forests of continental South and South-east Asia. Whilst …
