[edit] sp. discolor not accepted

ITIS does not accept the species name Diospyros discolor. The accepted name is Diospyros blancoi [[1]] . Is there any reason why this binomial should not be changed? NaySay 15:48, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Some useful sites for this article (I also gave these sites for the Kamagong article):

http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/morton/mabolo.html (has a story why it is called blancoi)

http://www.worldagroforestrycentre.org/Sea/Products/AFDbases/AF/asp/SpeciesInfo.asp?SpID=18079

Maybe I'll get around doing it next week. Also, I think the description of the fruit's aroma as smelling like cat's feces is a little biased. I've had it and I agree with most articles that it smells a bit like rotten cheese. (with hints of jackfruit, peach, apple, ... but that's just me)

[edit] Merge with Kamagong?

I think this article should be merged with the Kamagong article. I mean, we don't have an apple and a separate apple tree article do we?
