It is commonly known as the Leichhardt tree and yellow cheesewood, among other names. It grows to a maximum of around in height and has large glossy leaves. It bears spherical clusters of fragrant flowers that develop into golf ball-sized edible but bitter fruits. The yellowish to orange soft wood is also used for timber and in woodcarving and folk medicine. It is native to Southeast Asia, New Guinea, and Australia. ==Taxonomy and nomenclature== ''Nauclea orientalis'' is known under the common names Leichhardt tree, cheesewood, yellow cheesewood, and canary cheesewood. It is also sometimes known as the Leichhardt pine due to the overall shape of the tree, though it is not a conifer. "Leichhardt pine", however, is more commonly used for the kadam or burrflower tree (''Neolamarckia cadamba''), a closely related species. The two were often confused together, but the native range of Leichhardt trees do not extend to India where kadam trees are common. It is known chiefly as ''bangkal'' in the Philippines. Regional variations of the name include ''balikakak'', ''kabag'', ''kabak'', ''mabalot'', and ''malbog''.〔〔 It is closely related and sometimes confused with the ''bongkol'' or ''bulubangkal'' tree (''Nauclea subdita''). It is called ''kanluang'' in Thailand.〔C. Orwa, A. Mutua, R. Kindt, R. Jamnadass, & S. Anthony (2009). (''Nauclea orientalis'' L. (Rubiaceae) ). (Agroforestree Database:a tree reference and selection guide version 4.0 ), World Agroforestry Centre. Retrieved May 3, 2011〕 Among the Djabugay people of Australia, they are known as ''gadugay''. Among the Kuku Yalanji, they are known as ''kabal''. The Jawoyn people call it ''jirrib'' or ''wowerlk''. In various other languages of the Indigenous Australians, the names for Leichhardt trees include ''kaapi'' or ''kalpi'' in Pakanh, ''atulwanyj'' in Uw Oykangand, ''atulganyj'' in Uw Olkola. In avoidance speech (Uw Ilbmbanhdhiy or "respect language"), it is known as ''oboy'' in Uw Oykangand and ''opoy'' in Uw Olkola.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Uw Oykangand and Uw Olkola Multimedia Dictionary )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nauclea orientalis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
