Annona salzmannii explained

Annona salzmannii, the beach sugar apple, is a tree native to Brazil.

It is an extremely rare Annona bearing orange skinned fruits up to one pound in weight with a sweet and very tasty white pulp.[1] The fruit is prized in its native range, but is rare and never cultivated.

The tree is an evergreen tree to 30-, one of the tallest Annona trees.[2] These fruit trees are like A. scleroderma and A. crassiflora.

A. salzmannii is a food source for golden-headed lion tamarins (one of 155 tree species useful to the tamarins).
