Describtion:
Shrubs, erect or scandent. Branches glabrous; spines curved or straight, to ca. 2 cm, sometimes very inconspicuous. Petiole ca. 1 cm; leaf blade elliptic-lanceolate to oblong, 3-8 × 2-2.5 cm, papery to leathery, glabrous, base cuneate, margin entire, apex rounded to shortly acuminate; secondary veins 7-10 on each side of midvein, tertiary veins reticulate. Male inflorescences a capitulum, 6-10 mm in diam., pedunculate. Female inflorescences pubescent; peduncle to 1 cm. Male flowers: calyx lobes 4, unequal; anthers short; pistillode pyramidal or shield-shaped. Female flowers: calyx lobes free or basally connate, apex thick. Fruiting syncarp reddish orange when mature, 2-5 cm in diam., pubescent. Drupes brown when mature, ovoid, smooth.

Ecological:
Thickets and brushwood in lowland forest and up to elevations of 1,800 m.
Cultivation:
A slow growing plant, the stems reaching 10 - 15cm diameter in about 10 - 15 years. Formerly extensively used in 'batik' processes. The easy availability of synthetic dyes has largely reduced the use of this plant, but it is still locally used in dyeing processes. However, the traditional 'soga-batik' produced with it is very expensive and used only in ceremonies, particularly by Javanese nobility. As the demand for 'soga-batik' is decreasing and as it is becoming more and more difficult to obtain the wood, the use of this vegetable dye so highly esteemed in Javanese culture can be expected to disappear completely in the near future.
Flower times:
Fl. Apr-May, fr. Jun-Jul..
Type:
Zippelius, A. [s.n.], Maluku Maclura amboinensis K001050096 Unknown type material

Chemical and Pharmacology:
All the phytochemical constituents under study were tested positive. The total phenolic content and flavonoids were found to be 35.98±0.97 mg gallic acid equivalent/g and 21.52±0.44 mg Quercetin/g dry extract. The extract showed excellent DPPH antioxidant activity with IC50 value 46.32±0.21μg/ml. Similarly, the IC50 of hydroxy radical, nitric oxide radical scavenging activity and lipid peroxidation inhibition were 154.25±0.47 μg/ml, 112.19±0.22 μg/ml, 164±0.44 μg/ml and 99.50±0.35 μg/ml, 42.38±0.17 μg/ml, 119.55±0.37 for plant extract and ascorbic acid, respectively. Antibacterial study of the plant extract showed positive test to Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus with minimum inhibition concentration ranging from 125 to 500 μg/ml.
Uses:
The heartwood, particularly of the larger roots, but also of the stem, is used to dye textiles yellow; it is also used in mixtures of dyes. In Indonesia it is used as an ingredient of the traditional "soga-batik", together with the bark of Ceriops tagal (Perr.) C.B. Robinson and Peltophorum pterocarpum (DC.) Backer ex K. Heyne. Sometimes the dye is used for colouring other materials like mattings.
Some medicinal uses of the wood are also reported, notably against fever. A decoction of the roots is used to alleviate coughing. The young leaves are sometimes eaten raw. The fruit is edible.
