Ficus consociata[1] is a banyan fig species in the family Moraceae. No subspecies are listed in the Catalogue of Life.[2] The species can be found in Indo-China and western Malesia. In Vietnam it may be called đa đồng hành.[3]
Its common name is Karet Binasah.[4] It grows to a height of 25 meters and is pollinated by wasps.[5]
Like Ficus elastica, it produces a latex that has been used in the production of rubber. However, it eventually fell out of favor for such a purpose, owing to the resin hardening with time.[6]
