Gostaria de saber a melhor tradução, do português para o inglês, para o termo "tamboril", que é uma árvore de origem brasileira.
Seguem alguns dados a seu respeito:
"O Tamboril (Enterolobium maximum Ducke) é uma árvore de origem brasileira, frondosa, sem cheiro, de cerne marrom-claro a cinza-rosado, típica das matas da região do Pará, Amazonas e Mato Grosso. Ao contrário das madeiras-de-lei, possui baixa durabilidade ao ataque de fungos, cupins e insetos de madeira seca. Apesar disso, é muito utilizada na fabricação de móveis e brinquedos, pois é de fácil manejo e acabamento. De crescimento rápido, pode chegar a mais de quatro metros em dois anos.
Outros nomes populares: Fava-bolacha, fava-orelha-de-negro, fava-tamboril,faveira-grande, monjobo,timbaúba, orelha-de-negro."
Desde já, muito obrigada por sua colaboração!!

Note from asker:
| The term is correct, but I'm looking for the popular name of this tree in English (if there is one...), since the text is about a Contemporary Art Gallery. Nonetheless, thank you for your contribution and willingness to help!! :-))) |
| Thank you for your most kind participation!!!!!!!!!!! |

tamboril tree
According to zipcodezoo.com this tree has no common name.

This may be the specie that has already been translated as "tamboril [in italics] tree" by Gregory Rabassa in his translation of Jose Sarney's "Master of the Sea"
