The tree is known to yield a very valuable timber, and was 
considered at the District Forest Office at Tinnevelly to be quite 
distinct from other allied species. Specimens were therefore sent 
to Kew by Mr. W. C. Hart, Deputy Forest Officer. They proved 
to represent a new genus near Balanocarpus, B It 
certainly distinguish 
fruiting sepals and by the fact that al 
divided nearly down to the 
the ripe nut instea 
cup as in Beddome’s genus.
