Falcatifolium angustum
"Tree to 20 m tall, 6-25 cm diam. Juvenile leaves narrowly lanceolate and gradually curved slightly forward towards the apex, c. 7 cm long and 1.2 mm near the base. Adult leaves less curved or straight, pungent, keeled on each side, 18-35 by 1-2.5 mm. Somewhat immature pollen cones 8 mm long and 2 mm diam. Seed-bearing structures unknown" (de Laubenfels 1988).
Borneo: Two collection in Sarawak, near the coast. Found at 90-240 m elevation on podsolized sands and kerangas. Associates include Parastemon, Shorea albida and Gymnostoma sp. (de Laubenfels 1988).
This taxon has a very restricted area of occupancy (typically less than 20 km2) with only two known locations, so it is prone to the effects of human activities or chance events within a very short time period in an uncertain future.
