Dipterocarpus coriaceus is a species of tree in the family Dipterocarpaceae endemic to Kalimantan, Sumatra and peninsular Malaysia. This very large tree occurs in mixed dipterocarp forests on hillsides and undulating land. This species was reported in the New Straits Times to be extinct in Peninsular Malaysia in July 2013 as its last natural habitat in Bikam Forest Reserve in Perak was de-gazetted and cleared for oil palm cultivation.
Dipterocarpus cornutus is a species of tree in the family Dipterocarpaceae native to peninsular Malaysia, Singapore, Sumatra and Kalimantan. Reaching heights of up to 50 meters tall, it is known for having large leaves. Its flowers are around 4 cm in diameter and of a pale yellow colouration. It drops seeds with green holes in the middle.
Dipterocarpus elongatus is a species of tree in the family Dipterocarpaceae found in Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore. This large tree occurs in secondary and primary forest, as well as in freshwater swamp forest.
Dipterocarpus gracilis is a critically endangered species of tree in the family Dipterocarpaceae, native to South Asia and Southeast Asia.
Dipterocarpus humeratus is a species of tree in the family Dipterocarpaceae. The species name humeratus is derived from Latin and refers to the articulated petiole. D. humeratus is an emergent tree, up to 50 m tall, found in mixed dipterocarp forests on well-drained clay soils. The species is found scattered or semi-gregarious on undulating land and clay ridges below 700 m altitude. It is found in Sumatra and Borneo and occurs in at least three protected areas.
Dipterocarpus semivestitus is a species of tree in the family Dipterocarpaceae, occurring in Kalimantan and peninsular Malaysia. This tree is almost always found in lowland forest on swampy land. It is very close to extinction.
Guioa is a genus of about 78 rainforest tree species known to science, which constitute part of the plant family Sapindaceae. They have a wide distribution, ranging from throughout Malesia, in Burma, Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, Malay Peninsula, Borneo, Sumatra, Philippines, Java, Flores, Timor, Sulawesi, Moluccas, New Guinea, further southwards through the east coast of Queensland and New South Wales, Australia and further eastwards to the Pacific Islands, including Tonga, New Caledonia, Fiji and Samoa.
Shorea pauciflora is a species of plant in the family Dipterocarpaceae. It is found in Sumatra, Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore. It is threatened by habitat loss. The specific epithet pauciflora is Latin for 'few-flowered'.
Dipterocarpus lamellatus is a tropical rainforest tree endemic to Borneo. It is known from the Beaufort Hills, the Siangau Forest Reserve and Labuan in SW Sabah and Ladan Hills in the Tutong district of Brunei. It is one of the rarest and most endangered of all dipterocarps, with a population size of only twelve individuals, threatened mostly by habitat loss.
Dipterocarpus confertus is a species of plant in the family Dipterocarpaceae. The species is named derived from Latin and probably refers to the indumentum. It is an emergent tree, up to 50 m (160 ft) tall, in mixed dipterocarp forest on leached yellow clay soils. It is endemic to Borneo. The species is threatened by deforestation. It is a medium hardwood sold under the trade names of Keruing. It is found in at least one protected area.
Dipterocarpus dyeri (Khmer: rôyiëng, chhë tiël pruhs, chhë tiël th'nô:r, local name Kompong Thom: chhieutiel chgor, name used for commercial timber and the group of trees harvested for such: keruing, Vietnamese: Dầu Song Nàng, is a species of tree in the family Dipterocarpaceae found in Myanmar, Thailand, Peninsular Malaysia, Cambodia and Vietnam. The tree is found in rain forest and lowland semi-evergreen dipterocarp forests, an alternative habitat description is mixed dense forests of the plains, mainly among rivers and valleys. The tree is a climax or late successional species, which in some secondary forests forms relatively young pure colonies. The conservation status is based on rates of habitat loss, the major threat to the taxa, though in Vietnam it is cited as having a less threatened conservation status of Vulnerable.
Dipterocarpus cuspidatus is a tree in the family Dipterocarpaceae.
Dipterocarpus fagineus grows as a medium-sized tree up to 45 metres (150 ft) tall, with a trunk diameter of up to 1 metre (3 ft). Bark is greyish brown.

Dipterocarpus lowii is a tree in the family Dipterocarpaceae.
Dipterocarpus oblongifolius grows as a tree up to 30 metres (100 ft) tall, with a trunk diameter of up to 1.5 metres. Bark is greyish brown. The fruits are ovoid to spindle-shaped, up to 3 cm (1 in) long. The specific epithet oblongifolius is from the Latin meaning "oblong leaves". Habitat is river banks from sea-level to 400 metres (1,300 ft) altitude. D. oblongifolius is found in Thailand, Peninsular Malaysia and Borneo.
