Dipteryx panamensis and Coumarouna panamensis), the eboe, choibá, Tonka Bean or almendro (almond in Spanish), is a species of emergent rainforest tree up to 165 feet (fifty meters) tall[2] in the family Fabaceae (the subfamily Papilionoidea), native to Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, and Ecuador.

[1][3][4] A valuable hardwood timber tree, its almond-flavored seeds are edible and sold in local markets.

[5] Its seedpods are so oily that locals use them as torches.

[6] It has "great potential" as an ornamental due to its spectacular bloom of pink flowers which lasts for weeks,[6] and is used as a street tree in Medellín, Colombia.

[7] The flowers are followed by green fruit up to 2.5 inches (six cm) with seeds which are a critical food item for the Great Green Macaw (Ara ambigua).
