Aquilaria rostrata

Aquilaria rostrata is a species of plant in the Thymelaeaceae family. It is endemic to Malaysia. It is classified as vulnerable by the IUCN. It is sometimes used for agarwood, but unsustainable harvesting is believed to be threatening agarwood-producing species and therefore is discouraged by environmental groups.
