'''''Terminalia paniculata''''' is a large-sized commercial timber tree endemic to [[Peninsular India]], commonly distributed in [[Karnataka]] and [[Kerala]].{{cn|date=June 2023}}<br />
<br />
Terminalias are especially known for cyclic triterpenes, flavanoids and tannins and ''T. paniculata'' is the best source of [[Tannin|tannins]]. The tree is commonly known as Kindal in terms of timber and Flowering Murdah in terms of ornamental purposes, locally known as Kindal ([[Hindi]]), Hanalu ([[Kannada]]), Kindal [[Konkani language|(Konkani)]], Vellamaruth ([[Malayalam]]), Pillai Maruth [[Tamil language|(Tamil)]], Pulimaddi [[Telugu language|(Telugu)]], Asvakarna ([[Sanskrit]]), Kinjal [[Marathi language|(Marathi)]], etc. Golden coloured flowers and deep red coloured fruits of ''T. paniculata'' give splendid colouration to the entire forest area due to the formation of a large number of flowers and fruits in a single individual and population dominance. Species were recently neotypified by the [[Botanical Survey of India]].<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Chakrabarty |first=Tapas |last2=Kumar |first2=Venkatachalam Sampath |date=2017-10-20 |title=Neotypification of Terminalia paniculata (Combretaceae) |url=https://biotaxa.org/Phytotaxa/article/view/phytotaxa.326.1.9 |journal=Phytotaxa |volume=326 |issue=1 |pages=88 |doi=10.11646/phytotaxa.326.1.9 |issn=1179-3163}}</ref><br />
