Its not really a fruit, it is a type of group of trees that bears fruit which are inedible.
Shorea trees are known for their tall stature, straight trunks, and durable, decay-resistant wood. They are typically found in tropical rainforests and are important timber species used in construction and furniture making. Shorea trees also produce seeds that are a food source for wildlife.
One characteristic of the Shorea plant is its hardwood timber, which is commonly used for construction and furniture making due to its strength and durability. Shorea plants are also known for their tall and straight trunks, as well as their ability to produce resin that is used in varnishes and adhesives.
The characteristics of a shorea plant include hardy bark and white or red coloring. The plants are deciduous and offer spatula shaped leaves in light green or striped green coloring.
Shorea trees primarily disperse their seeds through a method known as gravity dispersal. The seeds, often contained in large, fleshy fruits, fall to the ground when ripe and can be carried away by water or animals. Additionally, some species have seeds that are winged, allowing them to be carried by the wind over short distances. This combination of dispersal mechanisms helps ensure the propagation of Shorea in diverse environments.
Shorea robusta, commonly known as Sal tree, is a timber-yielding plant belonging to the family Dipterocarpaceae. It is native to the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia and is valued for its hard, durable timber.
by wind
Fold it
It will spin and then slowly drop off.
Because it has a wing like structure that allows it to spin.
The scientific name of Shorea palosapis is Shorea palosapis.
Shorea is dispersed by wind because of it's wing-like structures
By wind
The name would be Intsia spp. Family: Leguminosae.

yes
