Manilkara Excisa
''Manilkara'' is a genus of trees in the family Sapotaceae. They are widespread in tropical and semitropical locations, in Africa, Madagascar, Asia, Australia, and Latin America, as well as various islands in the Pacific and in the Caribbean. A close relative is the genus ''Pouteria''. Trees of this genus yield edible fruit, useful wood, and latex. The best-known species are '' M. bidentata'' (''balatá''), '' M. chicle'' (chicle) and '' M. zapota'' (sapodilla). ''M. hexandra'' is the floral emblem of Prachuap Khiri Khan Province in Thailand, where it is known as ''rayan''. ''M. obovata'' shares the vernacular name of African pear with another completely different species, ''Dacryodes edulis'', and neither should be confused with ''Baillonella toxisperma'', known by the very similar name, African pearwood. ''Manilkara'' trees are often significant, or even dominant species in their native ecosystems, such as East Deccan dry evergreen forests, Central American premontane trop ...
