Dipterocarpus costatus (Khmer chhë tiël niëng, chhë tiël bangkuëy, niëng daèng krâhâm[2]) is a species of tree in the family Dipterocarpaceae found in the Indochinese and Malay Peninsulas, including Cambodia. The tree is found in "mixed dense deciduous or half-deciduous forest of the plain and in wet dense altitude forest, up to 1200m., on well drained rich grounds.".[2] It grows to height of 25-40m. In Cambodia the resin is used particularly for the caulking of boats, and the preparation of torches, the wood used for work not exposed to the elements.[2]
