Kibara coriacea is a plant in the family Monimiaceae. The specific epithet coriacea is from the Latin meaning "leathery", referring to the leaves.[4]
Kibara coriacea grows as a shrub or tree measuring up to 15 metres (50 ft) tall with a diameter of up to 15 centimetres (6 in). The smooth bark is pale grey. The ovoid fruits are drupes (pitted), ripen to deep blue, purple or black, and measure up to 2 cm (1 in) long. The fruits are considered edible.[4]
Kibara coriacea grows naturally in India, in Indonesia and Malaysia (including Borneo), and in Singapore.[5] Its habitat is lowland rain forests and lower montane forests from sea-level to 1,600 metres (5,200 ft) altitude.[4]
