Sterculia Lychnophora

Scaphium affine is a tree species in the family Malvaceae, subfamily Sterculioideae (previously placed in the Sterculiaceae and synonyms include Sterculia lychnophora Hance). It is native to mainland South East Asia and no subspecies are listed in the Catalogue of Life.

Scaphium affine has culinary and traditional medicinal uses. In English it is known as malva nut tree, or sometimes "Taiwan sweet gum tree", although these names also apply to the similar Scaphium macropodum (Vietnamese).

The tree grows to a height of 25–30 m. The dried seeds are the size of an adult's fingertip; they are brown and have coarse skin.
