Ficus baccaureoides

Ficus baccaureoides is a Solomon Islands fig described by Corner in 1960 and almost unknown since; GBIF has no usable wild records. The epithet compares it with Baccaurea, a genus that bears fruit on the trunk, but no description was accessible to confirm its habit. Targets assume a lowland rainforest treelet in a hot, wet, equable climate.
