Holigarna is a genus of trees in the subfamily Anacardioideae of the cashew and sumac family Anacardiaceae. They grow naturally in India, Bangladesh and Indo-China.[2][3] This is a poisonous tree; if contacted, it would irritate skin chemically and result in irreversible skin damage. Smoke from burning this wood is dangerously disabling.[4]
