EDITORS COMMENTS
Bungo Fruit: A Botanical Marvel from the Tropics This chromolithograph showcases the enchanting Bungo fruit, also known as Mbungo or the Rubber Vine (Saba comorensis, formerly Landolphia comorensis var. florida). Originally illustrated for Hermann Adolph Koehler's Medicinal Plants, edited by Gustav Pabst in 1887, this botanical treasure is a testament to the rich diversity of the natural world. The Bungo tree is a native of tropical Africa, with its lush, climbing vines producing unique, elongated, and irregularly shaped fruits. The fruit's vibrant, eye-catching appearance is a result of its intricate, textured surface, which is covered in small, raised bumps and grooves. These bumps are not only aesthetically pleasing but also serve a functional purpose, providing grip for various wildlife that plays a crucial role in the fruit's dispersal. Bungo fruit is not only visually striking but also holds significant cultural and medicinal importance. Indigenous peoples of Central and West Africa have long utilized the fruit, bark, and latex of the Bungo tree for various purposes. The latex, rich in natural rubber, has been used for making rubber products, while the fruit has been consumed for its nutritional value and medicinal properties. This beautiful chromolithograph is an enduring reminder of the natural world's intricacy and the importance of preserving and appreciating the botanical wonders that surround us. It invites us to explore the depths of the natural world and to marvel at the beauty and utility of plants like the Bungo fruit.
