Aglaia laxiflora is a tree species of the kingdom Plantae in the Meliaceae family. It is native to Borneo, excluding the region that is the Malaysian state of Sarawak, an island located north of Australia at the geographic centre of Maritime Southeast Asia and is divided between the countries of Brunei Darussalam, Indonesia and Malaysia.[1]

Aglaia laxiflora is primarily restricted to forest and to periodically inundated dipterocarp forest. The tree is considered a vulnerable species as its habitat is continuously lost.[1]
