For me the tree looks like Gordonia obtusa of Theaceae. This is commonly seen in konkan and western ghats. Common names - Kannada : Mallangana mara, OlaKannada: Nagatta; Malayalam: Atangi, Karikkova, Kattukarana. I think the bark is used for catching fishes . I am sending the photographs taken by me in western ghats in a separate mail as there is no option to attach photos to this mail.
