Notes : This giant Koompassia tree is a striking feature on the road between Lahad Datu and Tabin. Koompasia excelsa trees (Sabah Malay: Mengaris) are often preserved when the forest is converted to oil palm as they often host giant hives of honey produced by the world's largest honey bee Apis dorsata.
