Knema glaucescens is a species of plant in the family Myristicaceae. It is native to Sumatra, Peninsular Malaysia, Singapore and Borneo.[1] However, a morpho-taxonomic study of fossil leaves assemblage discovered from the upper part of the Siwalik succession of sediments of Papum Pare district, Arunachal Pradesh, India , had shape, base and venation pattern comparable to Knema glaucescens (Myristicaceae).[2]
