Pouteria cf. egregia is a striking tropical fruit tree reaching up to 18 meters in height, native to the region of Una, Bahia, Brazil. It is known for producing large, football-shaped yellow fruits that are both visually stunning and highly palatable. The sweet, white flesh is smooth and contains minimal latex, making the fruit ideal for fresh consumption. With its appealing flavor profile and attractive appearance, this species holds strong potential for cultivation among tropical fruit enthusiasts and collectors seeking rare and underutilized varieties.

Thriving in the warm, humid climate of Una, Pouteria cf. egregia is well-adapted to tropical environments with temperatures ranging from 24°C to 30°C. The region experiences a defined wet season from April to July and a drier period from August to November, conditions that support the healthy growth and fruiting of this species. Its climate tolerance aligns closely with USDA hardiness zones 10–11, making it suitable for cultivation in similar tropical or subtropical regions around the world. As an emerging species of interest, Pouteria cf. egregia presents a promising addition to agroforestry systems and rare fruit collections.
