In addition to BSI KEY, the description in Flora Indica suggest it is *Macrosolen globosus* (Roxb.) Tiegh.
Rowburgh's own account was that flowers of *ampullaceus* (*cochinchinensis*) short-pedicelled, pretty large (compared to *globosus*?). Host species of the family as a whole needs to be studied more. Roxburgh simply mentioned "trees", no particular species for both *globosus* and *ampullaceus*, though he recorded that mango trees are preferred by the later.
