Saba comorensis
''Saba comorensis'', the bungo fruit (pl. mabungo), mbungo, or rubber vine is a plant, which is widespread across most of tropical Africa as well as in Madagascar and Comoros. It grows in Tanzania, for example on the islands of Pemba and Zanzibar in the Indian Ocean. The species belongs to the genus ''Saba'' from the Apocynaceae family. The fruit looks similar to an orange with a hard orange peel but when opened it contains a dozen or so pips, which have the same texture as a mango seed with the fibres and juices all locked in these fibres.
The fruit also makes a delicious juice drink which has been described as tasting "somewhere between a mango, an orange and a pineapple" 〔(The Times retrieved 30 July 2009 ) "The highlight is a juice from the bungo fruit, indigenous to Zanzibar, which has a taste somewhere between a mango, an orange and a pineapple."〕 The aromatic juice of the Bungo fruit is also popular and highly appreciated on Pemba Island and other parts of coastal Tanzania.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= ''Saba comorensis'' in Agroforestree Database )〕
Not only in the Tanzanian Mahale Mountains National Park, ''S. comorensis'' is dispersed by chimpanzees.〔James V. Wakibara.
