Parinari anamensis [3] is a species of dicotyledonous flowering plant. It is a tree native to Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam,[2] where it grows in lowland tropical moist forest.[1] It is commonly known as Annamese burada. The Vietnamese name is cám. The Khmer name is thlok ធ្លក. A classical name for Cambodia is Nakorkuk Thlok ("the land of the thlok tree").
The trunk has a pinkish-brown hue with soft flaking bark (see illustration).
The species was described by Henry Fletcher Hance in 1877.[2] It is currently placed in the family Chrysobalanaceae,[4][5] (but formerly the Rosaceae). No subspecies are listed in the Catalogue of Life.[4]
