Castanopsis borneensis is locally known as berangan in Malay. It is an evergreen tree that can grow up to 20 m tall and 30 cm in diameter. The bark is smooth or slightly fissured and pale brown in colour while its inner bark is yellowish-brown. The sapwood is yellowish. The twigs are glabrous (smooth) and grey when young. The stipules is linear and in between 2 to 3.5 mm long. The leaves are coriaceous (having the texture of leather), glabrous on both surfaces with petioles of about 10 to 15 mm long. The male flowers are arranged in clusters of 3 along the rachis while the female flowers are arranged in solitary along the rachis. Both male and female flowers have acute perianth lobes. The cupules are sessile and there is only one seed with thin shell in each cupule (Soepadmo & Saw, 2000).
Castanopsis borneensis is endemic to Borneo. In Sabah, it is usually found in Ranau, Sipitang and Beaufort districts while in Sarawak, it can be found in Bintulu, Kuching, Miri and Sibu districts. This tree grows in the primary lowland mixed dipterocarp and kerangas forests at elevations up to 200 m (Soepadmo & Saw, 2000).
