Pangium
Pangium is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Flacourtiaceae. It is primarily found in tropical regions of Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands. The plants in this genus are known for their large, leathery leaves and distinctive fruit, which can be toxic if consumed improperly.
The most notable species within this genus is Pangium edule, commonly known as the "langsat" or "pangi." The fruit of this plant is often used in traditional dishes, but it requires careful preparation to remove toxins. Pangium plays a role in local ecosystems and is sometimes cultivated for its unique characteristics.
