Garuga pinnata[1] is a deciduous tree species from the family Burseraceae.
It occurs in Asia: from the Indian sub-continent, southern China and Indo-China; in Vietnam it may be called dầu heo. No subspecies are listed in the Catalogue of Life.[2]
Plant galls may occur on G. pinnata caused by Phacopteron lentiginosum (Psylloidea: Phacopteronidae), whose populations may be regulated by parasitoids.[3]
