Varieties
According to Corner, the fruit (MANGOSTEEN) from seedling trees is fairly uniform; only one distinct variation is known and that is in the Sulu Islands. The fruit(MANGOSTEEN) is larger, the rind thicker than normal, and the flesh more acid; the flavor more pronounced. In North Borneo, a seemingly wild form has only 4 carpels, each containing a fully-developed seed, and this is probably not unique.
