Shorea palosapis is a flowering plant in the Dipterocarpaceae family.[2] It is commonly called (along with some other species in the genus Shorea) Philippine Mahogany or White Lauan. It is endemic to the Philippines. It is threatened by habitat loss which stems from recent human involvement in its natural habitat.
