Use : Good timber, Dammar of inferior quality, yellowish white. 
An account of the timber and Damar of the Kumus based on specimens 
sent from Senaling by Mr. Moorhouse was published by me in Agric. Bull. 
Straits, iv. 63. I identified the plant with 5 . ciliata, but noted certain 
differences; additional specimens make it clear, I think, that the species is 
distinct from ciliata, but no flowers have as yet been collected.
