Agathis endertii is a species of conifer tree, in the Araucariaceae family.
Distribution
It is found on the island of Borneo, in Brunei, the Kalimantan section of Indonesia, and the Sabah section of Malaysia.
Although widespread, Agathis endertii is found in isolated populations within moist lowland Kerangas forest around sandstone Kerangas.
Conservation
