The origin of life [where] the ancient Indian grows a very toxic plant, called curare wood, local people often cut the tree trunk part of a scar, so that resin flow, the locals will be painted with this resin up arrow hunting prey.

Conservation value
Antiaris is the case of four kinds of distribution to the country's only 1 species, the number of rare species; its sap is highly toxic, toxic ingredients for the flesh Antiaris glycosides α-and β-Antiaris glycosides, has a strong heart, accelerated heart rate, increase the role of hard work output, the value of a study in medicine; bark fiber slender, powerful, easy unglued, substitutes for hemp, fiber material is easy to behave towards the system.

Protection measures
Hainan Antiaris Wuzhishan mostly in the tropical rain forest region, the region as a national nature reserve, so the best preserved. In Yunnan, Antiaris people in most parts of the distribution of nature reserves, protected areas outside, local people have the habit of protection, often without any cut. Guangdong, Guangxi, the origin of protected areas are not built strong protection should be strengthened to expand the plant.
