Leaves glabrous; petiole 2–4.5 cm long; blade oblong or oblong-lanceolate, 10–30 x 3.5–6.5 cm, acute to acuminate at the apex, cuneate at the base, shiny, ± leathery; midrib and lateral nerves prominent. Flowers in 10–60 cm long much-branched pubescent panicles; sepals 2–2.5 mm long, pubescent; petals 3–5 mm long, reflexed, cream becoming pinkish; stamens 1(–2), staminodes 3(–4). Drupe 8–30 x 7–12 cm, green to yellow or red.
Range
Cultivated particularly in southern Somalia and locally naturalized native of southern Asia, now cultivated throughout the tropics.
Canbo (Som.), mango (Eng.).Gorini 174 was recorded as M. macrocarpa Bl. by Chiovenda in Fl. Somala 2: 151 (1932). It is a specimen with leaves only, collected from a huge tree along the Juba R. However, the leaves agree well with those of M. indica in size (M. macrocarpa generally has longer leaves).
