Pometia pinnata is a large tropical hardwood and fruit tree species, native to tropical South Asia, Southeast Asia, and Melanesia. It was transported during the Austronesian expansion to Polynesia during prehistoric times, and grows into a medium tree of 40m tall. Its leaves are pinnate, and its fruits are green, yellow, or dark red up to 4cm long, each with one seed surrounded by a fleshy aril. The fruit is slightly larger than a longan, but its flesh is less watery and its shell is thicker.
