Pollinating fig wasp (Ceratosolen sp.) collected on Ficus septica from south of Taiwan
Ficus septica (called Hauili or Hawili in the Philippines, 稜果榕 in Taiwan) is a shrub or tree of the family Moraceae living at low altitudes from northeast India to north Australia (Queensland), and throughout Malesia.[2]
It lives on the edge of the vegetation, often in degraded environments. The seeds of this species are dispersed by numerous species, including fruit bats (Megachiroptera) when present.[3]
