How to identify Centrolobium tomentosum

Identify Centrolobium tomentosum by combining habit, leaf characters, flower or fruit details, location, and its family pattern. Do not rely on one feature alone.

  • Look for a tree habit.
  • Confirm leaf type: Pinnately compound (leaflets in rows along a stalk).
  • Confirm leaf surface: Tomentose (woolly, matted hairs).
  • Confirm flower colour: Yellow.
  • Confirm it sits within the Fabaceae family pattern, then compare close relatives before deciding it is Centrolobium tomentosum.
