Dacryodes patentinervia is a tree in the family Burseraceae. It is endemic to Borneo, whereby it is known locally as sabal, sibut or seladah.
The species was mistakenly identified as Dacryodes expansa. It was also formerly classified as a subspecies of Dacryodes macrocarpa.
It is known as sabal in Brunei and by the Iban people, sibut by the Tutong and Dusun people in Brunei, and seladah in Sarawak.
Dacryodes patentinervia grows to 35m (115feet) tall and 80cm (30inches) in diameter. The buttresses are narrow and the bark is thin, flaky and pale yellow-brown in colour. The male flower is trimerous. The fruit is ellipsoid, grows up to 5cmx3cmcm (02inchesx01inchescm), and is apple red in colour.
Dacryodes patentinervia is endemic to northwest Borneo, from the Rejang valley in Sarawak to as far as Bukit Hampuan in Sabah. It grows most abundantly in mixed dipterocarp forest. It can be found from sea level up to 1500m (4,900feet) elevation.
The fruit is used as a laxative.
