Ficus aruiculata

'Ficus aruiculata' is almost certainly a misspelling of Ficus auriculata Lour., the Roxburgh fig, carried into GBIF as a separate name with four records from Taiwan and China. The Roxburgh fig is a small, broad-leaved tree bearing large figs on the trunk, widespread from the Himalaya to southern China. The measured climate at 760–2,050 m has warm, wet summers and cool, dry winters.

Where it grows wild

The four records come from Taiwan and southern China at 155–2,050 m. Under its correct spelling this is a small tree of forest edges, ravines and disturbed ground; that account was not verified from a source reachable here.

Four records span 155–2,050 m, median 1,610 m.
