Podocarpus neriifolius is a species of conifer in the family Podocarpaceae. It grows 10–15m tall, though very occasionally taller, in tropical and subtropical wet closed forests, between 650m and 1600m elevation. [3] In Cambodia however it grows in a dwarf form some 2–4m tall, at Bokor, some 1000m elevation.

It ranges from Nepal, eastern India,and Bangladesh through parts of Indochina ( Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam) and Malesia ( Peninsular Malaysia, Sumatra, Borneo, Sulawesi, and the Philippines). [2]

Previously the species was thought to range eastwards as far as Fiji. David J. de Laubenfels identified the eastern populations from New Guinea to Fiji as a separate species, Podocarpus idenburgensis, distinguished by narrow, acute leaves. [4]

Its common name in Khmer is srô:l. [3]

It has a yellowish wood, used in construction in Cambodia, where it is graded 2nd category (not as good as 1st, but above others). [3]
