Dipteryx oleifera (syns. Dipteryx panamensis and Coumarouna panamensis), the eboe, choibáoralmendro (almond in Spanish), is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae, native to Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, and Ecuador.[1][2][3]

A valuable hardwood timber tree, its almond-flavored seeds are edible and sold in local markets.[4] Its seedpods are so oily that locals use them as torches.[5] It has "great potential" as an ornamental due to its spectacular bloom of pink flowers which lasts for weeks,[5] and is used as a street treeinMedellín, Colombia.[6]
