Ficus allamecraloo

Ficus allamecraloo Wight is an old herbarium or catalogue name, not a recognised living species with a known range. It appears on plate 650 of Wight's Icones Plantarum Indiae Orientalis and is flagged as a slip of the pen ('sphalm.'). The epithet looks like a transcribed South Indian vernacular name rather than a deliberate species name. There are no usable wild records and no native distribution in Kew's checklist for it in our data, so this profile gives no cultivation targets. Plants labelled with this name should be identified to a currently accepted Ficus species.
