This species is a common constituent of tropical deciduous
forests in Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam (FIPI, 1996). In Cambodia the species usually occurs in dense deciduous or cleared forests up to 700 m a.s.l. (Dy Phon, 2000).
The species is rarely found in primary forests. The tree is often mixed with many other species, but often occurs as a dominant plant. It is a light-demanding, drought tolerant tree that is suitable for well drained, light textured soils with shallow depths and little humus (Khorn, 2002). It is found in Kampong Thom, Stung Treng, Preah Vihear, Rattanakiri, Kratie, Siem Reap, Kampot, Pursat and Mondulkiri (Khorn, 2002; see map).
