Read about Isonandra in the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture 

Isonandra (Greek, equal anthers). Sapotaceae. Isonandra Gutta (equals Palaquium Gutta, Burck.). is a large-leaved East Indian tree belonging to this genus, which furnishes the best commercial gutta-percha. The name has appeared in one southern catalogue, but the plants were found to be not true to name. This plant should be called Palaquium Gutta. In Palaquium the floral parts are in sixes, stamens twelve and the seeds have no albumen, while in Isonandra the floral parts are in fours, the stamens eight, and the seeds albuminous.
