The aims were to investigate the diversity of the plants and as a dedication to the Expedition of the Republic of Indonesia Corridor Sulawesi. Using an explorative method, we collected the plants and recorded all data in the field following the tracks assisted by the field guide. A total of 179 collection-numbers have been collected from this dry lowland forest including the data for the local names. Many potential and valuable plants occur in the forest, 13 plants were highlighted in this paper for its conservation status, the potentiality for various purposes or its uniqueness: Diospyros celebica Bakh. or streak ebony (Ebenaceae), Arenga pinnata (Wurmb.) Merr. (Arecaceae), Phyllanthus lamprophyllus Mull.Arg. (Phyllanthaceae), Cycas rumphii Miq. (Cycadaceae), Lagerstroemia speciosa (L.) Pers. (Lythraceae), Garcinia celebica...

In Indonesia, Pellacalyx can be found in the island of Sumatra, Kalimantan and Sulawesi. Eight species of Pellacalyx have been found in Indonesia, four of which them were from Kalimantan, i.e. P. axillaris, P. cristatus, P. lobbii and P. symphiodiscus. These four species generally grow in the primary and secondary forest, from lowland to an altitude of 1300 m above sea level. Information of Pellacalyx in Indonesia is still very limited , and rarely found in the wild. The last information of Pellacalyx found in West Sumatra was reported by an expedition team of the Center for Plant Conservation Bogor Botanical Garden in 2006. The Expert Team of the Khatulistiwa Expedition in Long Bagun, West Kutai, East Kalimantan on May 26–June 2, 2012 found a species of Pellacalyx. Morphological characterization was then conducted based on the herbarium specimen for i...

From the field observation, the ovoid mangosteen is distributed in several locations namely in District Landak, Singkawang, Sambas, Bengkayang, and Sanggau. Profile of the mangosteen tree which will be released as ovoid mangosteen is from Sempalai Sebedang Village, District of Sambas.
