Bagassa

[Jean Michel Maes]

Has someone an idea of what is Bagassa guianensis.
Is it a correct actual name ?
In which family does it belong ?
It is supposed to be a tree secreting a sap attractive to Acrocinus longimanus, a big longhorn beetle (Chemsak in Janzen, 1983).

Thanks for any suggestion,

Jean-Michel.
