Dalbergia occulta

Dalbergia occulta [2] is a species of flowering plant in the legume family Fabaceae.

[3] Its original description was based on a single collection, which explains its botanical name (from the Latin word occultus "hidden, concealed").

[3][4] The IUCN Red List lists Dalbergia occulta as critically endangered.

[5] Due to overexploitation and the risk of confusion with similar species, Dalbergia occulta and other Dalbergia species from Madagascar were listed in CITES Appendix II[6] in 2013, currently with a zero export quota.
