Stemonoporus reticulatus is a small tree from the dipterocarp family, endemic to southwestern Sri Lanka and found in lowland rain forest. It is a threatened wild species rarely grown outside its native forest, so there is little cultivation guidance.
Stemonoporus reticulatus (Sinhalese: Hal-mandora) is a species of flowering plant in the family Dipterocarpaceae. It is a small tree endemic to southwestern Sri Lanka. It grows on ridge crests in remaining lowland evergreen rain forest. The species is threatened by habitat loss from deforestation, and the remaining populations are increasingly fragmented. The IUCN Red List assesses the species as endangered.
The species was first described by George Henry Kendrick Thwaites in 1958.
