Description Top

Suggest a correction or write a new one!
Hevea pauciflora is a species of rubber tree native to the rainforests of Venezuela, the Guyanas, northern Brazil, Colombia and Peru. It is a small evergreen tree, growing to a height of 18m (60ft). The specific epithet pauciflora is Latin for 'few-flowered'. It is sometimes tapped for rubber production, but the latex is low in quality due to the presence of resin. This tree has been used in breeding programmes to increase disease resistance and improve the growth qualities of Hevea brasiliensis.
