This species is very common and widely distributed in the
Philippines at low and medium altitudes. Blanco’s description
is the whole basis of Streblus lactescens Blume, which accordingly
is an exact synonym of Streblus asper Lour. The generic name
Calius is derived from the common Tagalog name of the plant,
calios.
Illustrative specimen from Maragondong, Cavite Province,
Luzon, October, 1914 (Merrill: Species Blancoanae No. 151).
