Mangifera decandra is a species of mango trees in the genus Mangifera (family Anacardiaceae).[1][2] It was described by Ding Hou in 1972.[3]
The specific name "decandra" means "with ten stamens" in Latin.[4]
Mangifera decandra trees stand up to 39 metres in height, with a diameter of 75 cm dbh. The mangoes are 10 centimetres long, with green-reddish-brown skin and whitish flesh. They have a sweet-sour flavour. The flowers are pinkish-red in colour, are 4 millimetres in diameter, and occur in panicles. The leaves occur in whorls and lack stipules.[4]
Mangifera decandra is known from Sumatra and Borneo, where it occurs in undisturbed lowland forests made up predominantly of dipterocarp trees. Domestically, it is planted as a fruit tree in forest gardens. The trees can survive at a maximum altitude of 800 metres, although they typically dwell much lower.[4]
