Like B. Wrayi this species serves to connect Phanera with Lasiobema,. In 

 Perak, Mr. Wray informs us, the Malay name of this species is Dadau ; he says 

 that string and rope are made from the inner bark. Dr. Jack, on the other hand 

 limits the name Dadaub, in Sumatra, to his B. emarginata. In Malacca there appears 

 to be some dubiety as to the Malay name of the species, the following being those 

 noted :— A Tear Katop-Katop (Derry, 1118; Holmberg, 866; Goodenough, 1276): 

 Akar t'ipak kuda merah (Goodenough, 1672) : Sarau (Holmberg, 850) : Tanga Sarau 

 (Derry, 481).
