Range Description: The Viet Nam subpopulation has been extinct for some 300 years. An extensive forest survey in Sri Lanka has failed to find the species and information on subpopulations in India, Indonesia and the Philippines indicate the species is seriously threatened. Exploitation of the few known stands in Peninsular Malaysia may have caused its extinction there and what are believed to be the largest remaining subpopulations, in New Guinea, are being heavily exploited.
