C. cumingianus is found from India and tropical China through Indochina and throughout Malaysia.[4] In the Philippines, the seeds of C. cumingianus (known locally as balukanag) are used to make a non-drying oil either for traditional medicine or as fuel for oil lamps.[5]
Three subspecies are currently recognised:[3] C. cumingianus subsp. balansae, C. cumingianus subsp. cumingianus, and C. cumingianus subsp. kinabaluensis.
