Pannell suggests that this is possibly a member of Rutaceae.

Distribution: Australia, Lesser Sunda Isls, New Caledonia, New Guinea, Pacific Ocean, ?Philippines, Solomon Isls, Sulawesi. ?LUZON: ?Pampanga. Notes: Note by L.L.Co: The Philippine record, based on Loher 255 (K, LE, M, P, US) from Luzon (Mt Arayat), was tentatively assigned by Mabberley (1995) to this species. The vegetative parts and overall floral morphology including pollen features fit Anthocarapa, though the (male) flowers are 4-petalled. It may well represent a second species, resembling certain species of Dysoxylum.

(Philip.) 6 (1904) 8; EPFP 2 (1923) 361; Type: Merrill 1824 (PNH, holo, lost; B, iso, lost; G, K, iso), Luzon: Rizal, Bosoboso. Distribution: Borneo, Java, Lesser Sunda Isls, Malay Peninsula, Moluccas, New Guinea, Philippines, Sulawesi, Sumatra. BASILAN, LUZON: Albay, Aurora, Bataan, Camarines, Ilocos Sur, Isabela, Laguna, NCR, Nueva Ecija, Nueva Vizcaya, Pangasinan, Quezon, Rizal, Sorsogon, Zambales, MALAPACKUN, MINDANAO: Agusan del Norte, Misamis, Misamis Occidental, Surigao del Sur, Zamboanga del Sur, MINDORO, NEGROS, PALAWAN, POLILLO, SAMAR, SIBUYAN. Notes: Native and naturalized in the primary and secondary forests of Malesia to 1200m, or more. The wild form extends from Sumatra eastwards across Malesia to New Guinea. The cultivated forms in the Philippines falls mainly in the ‘kechapi’ category described by Mabberley (1995). Cultivars of this include the ‘native’ santol, corresponding to the Red Sentol of Corner (1940), ‘Manila’, a robust form now cultivated outside Malesia, and ‘Bangkok’, introduced here from Thailand in 1949. Planted and semi-cultivated throughout the settled areas of the Philippines, abundant in some second-growth forests. The wild forms known as Sandoricum vidalii is reported from Luzon. In primary forests at low and medium elevation where it occurs in low densities. Native.

The distribution of Toona ciliata largely overlaps with that of Toona sureni. Toona calantas may be a good morphologically distinct species, or simply a large-fruited geographical variant.
