Adansonia kilima

''Adansonia kilima'' is a species of baobab tree native to Africa, described in 2012. As with other baobabs, it is easily recognised by the swollen base of its trunk, which forms a massive caudex, giving the tree a bottle-like appearance. It is similar in appearance to the well-known ''Adansonia digitata''. ''Adansonia kilima'' is found in upland populations of southern and eastern Africa, where ''A. digitata'' also occurs. It has a restricted geographic range compared to ''A. digitata'', is diploid, and therefore presumably ancestral to the tetraploid ''A. digitata''.
