Bantolinao is a small to medium-sized tree that is found all over Southeast Asia and India. It is known as "ironwood" because of its dense and durable wood that is used in construction and furniture-making. It also has a lot of dark green foliage, providing shade to those that sit under it. Its flowers are quite tiny and its fruits are round, fleshy, and turn black when ripe.
Ang Bantolinao ay isang maliit hanggang katamtamang laki na puno na matatagpuan sa buong Timog Silangang Asya at India. Ito ay kilala bilang "ironwood" dahil sa siksik at matibay na kahoy na ginagamit sa pagtatayo ng bahay at paggawa ng muwebles. Mayroon din itong maraming madilim na berdeng mga dahon, na nagbibigay ng lilim sa mga nakaupo sa ilalim nito. Ang mga bulaklak nito ay medyo maliliit at ang mga bunga nito ay bilog, mataba, at nagiging itim kapag hinog na.
