Heptapleurum heterophyllum is a lower story rainforest tree native to the Malay Peninsula (Peninsular Malaysia and Peninsular Thailand). It belongs to the family Araliaceae.[1] Its common name is great-leaved ivy-palm. It is noteworthy for having very large leaves which are quadripalmate,[2] (i.e. the leaflet is the fourth order of branching in the leaf), possibly the only hardwood (dicot) tree that is so.
