Yishun Park - a fruit on hand beats 10 up in the tree

The search is finally over!!!!   Terap / tarrap IS found in Singapore also right at my new neighorhood. If you come across else where other than Yishun Park please let me know.  The other species with curly hairy one is high up in the hesitage tree in Fort Canning park.

I return with my P7000. I found bristle littering under the trees. The rough bristle is the same i felt in Borneo tarap. Then i found a fallen fruit. It was still very hard.

Terap / tarrap in hand.

The fruit is covered with bristle like outer skin.

Brought it home for the family member to touch and sectioned it to peep inside.

Little seeds attaching to the central core.  A far cry from those edible ones found in Sarawak / Sabah.
