Also known as Gular, the Cluster Fig bears its fruit on the tree trunk. They are visible here growing on or between the buttresses of this tree as well as further up the trunk. The fruit is edible but is more often consumed by birds, insects and monkeys. The species ranges from India to Australia and this example was photographed along the Cape Tribulation road, near the place where we had our lunch.
