Cariniana rubra is a large Brazilian forest tree in the Brazil-nut family, native to northern and central Brazil. It is a timber tree rather than a garden or houseplant, so care notes apply mainly to young trees in tropical settings.
Cariniana rubra is a species of woody plant in the family Lecythidaceae. It is endemic to Brazil. It is sometimes referred to by the common names jequitibá-vermelho or cachimbo-de-macaco in Brazilian Portuguese.
