Dacryodes costata is a tree in the family Burseraceae. The specific epithet costata is from the Latin meaning "ribbed", likely referring to the prominent veins on the leaf underside.[3]

Description
Dacryodes costata grows up to 45 metres (150 ft) tall with a trunk diameter of up to 45 centimetres (18 in). The grey-brown bark is smooth to flaky. The flowers are white. The fruits are ellipsoid or ovoid and measure up to 2.2 cm (1 in) long.[3]
Distribution and habitat
Dacryodes costata grows naturally in Sumatra, Peninsular Malaysia, Singapore, Borneo and the Philippines. Its habitat is lowland and hill forests from sea-level to 540 metres (1,800 ft) altitude.[1][3]
gollark: <@!336962240848855040> As far as I know 3nm does not actually exist yet, and there are a bunch of possible sizes you could use.
gollark: > The 22 nm node may be the first time where the gate length is not necessarily smaller than the technology node designation. For example, a 25 nm gate length would be typical for the 22 nm node.
gollark: As far as I know it *used* to actually be a measure of something, but they hit issues around... 22nm or something, don't really know... and despite said measure not changing very much the processes kept getting better, so they just reduced them.
gollark: I mean, generally if the number goes down the density of the transistors goes up, but it's not an actual measurement of anything.
gollark: They don't correspond to any actual measurement now.
