Belimbing Hutan (Baccaurea angulata)

Baccaurea angulata, commonly known as belimbing hutan or Dayak starfruit, is a tropical fruit tree in the Phyllanthaceae family native to Borneo. It produces small to medium-sized, angular fruits that grow in clusters directly on the trunk and branches (cauliflorous), with a sweet-tart pulp that is enjoyed fresh or processed locally. Ecologically, Baccaurea angulata supports forest wildlife by providing a food source and contributes to the diversity of understory fruiting trees. Culturally, it is valued by indigenous communities for its edible fruits and occasional traditional uses in local cuisine.
