Mangifera foetida (also called horse mango, malmut, limus, bachang and machang) is a species of plant in the family Anacardiaceae. It is found in wet-land rainforest regions of Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam.
The fruit is edible. However, young fruits extrude sap that can cause blisters.[citation needed] Mature fruits have a strong smell.[citation needed]
