Cut frankincense (Boswellia resin) from Sudan
Frankincense, also called olibanum, is the resin of trees in the genus Boswellia. The supplier names this lot “Boswellia spp – Carterii, resin, cut”, with Sudan as the country, and the pouch label reads “Frankincense”, “Boswellia spp – Carterii”, “Natural Incense Resin” and “Made in Sudan”. The photos show small cut fragments in pale yellow, beige and grey-brown. Choose 50 g, 250 g or 1 kg. Mycotrop sells it strictly as a collectible or souvenir item.

Boswellia spp and the name Carterii
“Boswellia spp” means that the label names the genus only, not a single species. Boswellia Roxb. ex Colebr. is an accepted genus of the Burseraceae in GBIF. “Carterii” recalls Boswellia carteri Birdw., a name that the World Checklist of Vascular Plants (WCVP) lists as a synonym of Boswellia sacra Flück. Because the label stays at genus level, we describe this resin as Boswellia spp and read Carterii as the supplier’s trade name.
Other resins of the same family
For a second frankincense, see the Indian frankincense, sold as tears and grains with India as the origin. Myrrh belongs to the same family: the cut myrrh from Kenya is labelled Commiphora myrrha.
