Dalbergia bintuluensis Sunarno & H.Ohashi (1997) 202. — Type: S 15593 View Materials (I. Paie) (holo L L0599660 ; iso BO, K), Sarawak, Bintulu , Segan Forest Reserve, Nov. 1961.
Dalbergia kostermansii Sunarno & H.Ohashi (1997) 209. — Type: Kostermans 6129 (holo L; iso BO, K), Borneo , Central Kutei.
Distribution — Borneo: Brunei, Sarawak, Kalimantan.
Habitat & Ecology — Primary forest, primary heath forest, secondary forest. Soil: grey silt, loam or yellow rich soil. Altitude up to 250 m. Flowering: October, November; fruiting:Augustus, November.
Note — Structure of mesocarp of the pods ± parenchyma- tous. According to Sunarno & Ohashi (1997) D. bintuluensis and D. kostermansii are different in the number of leaflets (3 or 5/5 or 7), the apex of the acumen (retuse/slightly apiculate) and the size of the pods (5–6 cm / 3–4 cm). However, the number of leaflets overlap, the apex of the acumen is variable in shape: in both species ± retuse to ± apiculate. The pods of D. kostermansii seem to be young without developed seeds, mature pods may be longer than 3–4 cm. The differences are too small to keep the two apart.
