Dalbergia lanceolaria is a species of tree in the subfamily Faboideae and tribe Dalbergieae.[2] It is a medium-sized tree growing to 20m tall[3][4] and is native to: India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Burma[4] and Indo-China (its Vietnamese names include vảy ốc, bạt ong or trắc múi giáo).[3]
The bark of the tree is traditionally used as an analgesic and anti-diarrhoeal.[5] The apiose isoflavone compound lanceolarin is found in its root bark.[6]
Because it produces new stems (ramets), it is recommended for reforestation projects on degraded land where seeds are unlikely to grow successfully.[7]
