Beilschmiedia gaboonensis

The trees grow up to 30 metres or more in height with trunks up to 1.2 metres in diameter. It is often the dominant canopy species in lowland forests. The branches are stout, and tend to spread widely. The leaves are dark green, and measure 7–12 cm in length and 3-5 centimetres in width. It produces small inconspicuous bisexual flowers (diameter: 2 mm), which are pubescent, with ovate tepals clustered in axillary or subterminal panicles (length: 6 cm). The inflorescence and perianth are sparsely pubescent. The fruit is obovoid, subglobose, ellipsoid to fusiform, and mucronate, and measures about 35–60 mm long.[6] It is scarlet or purplish brown when ripe.[7]
