Among the thirty known species of Durio, so far eleven species have been identified to produce edible fruits. However, there are many species for which the fruit has never been collected or properly described and it is likely that other species with edible fruit exist.^[1] The currently known nine species of edible durians are:

Image	Name	Common name	Distribution	Description
	Durio dulcis Becc.	durian marangang (or merangang), red durian, tutong, or lahong	Sabah and West Kalimantan, Borneo
	Durio grandiflorus Kosterm. & Soegeng'	ghost durian, durian munjit, durian hantu hutan, Sukang	Borneo
	Durio graveolens Becc.	Trako,[citation needed] tabelak, durian burung, durian kuning, durian merah, durian otak udang galah, red-fleshed durian	Southern Thailand, Peninsular Malaysia, Sumatra, Borneo, Palawan (Philippines)	It is a large tree up to 50 m (160 ft) tall. The husk of its fruit is orange-yellow, covered with pyramidal 1 cm (0.4 in) long spines. The fruit has sweet crimson-coloured flesh and a fragrance of roasted almonds. D. graveolens resembles D. dulcis but its fruit opens while it is still on the tree and has dark red flesh, whereas the fruit of D. dulcis drops unopened and has dark yellow flesh. Durian suluk, also known as durian siunggong, is a natural hybrid between D. zibethinus and D. graveolens, and retains the flavour and texture of D. zibethinus with subtle burnt caramel overtones of D. graveolens. Durian simpor is a mild-flavoured, yellow-fleshed variant of D. graveolens.[citation needed]
	Durio kinabaluensis Kosterm. & Soegeng	Mountain Durian	Crocker Range and Mount Kinabalu, Sabah
	Durio kutejensis (Hassk.) Becc.	durian pulu, durian merah, nyekak, Pakan, Kuluk, or lai	Borneo
	Durio lowianus Scort. ex King	durian duan, durian sepeh, durian au, Thurian-don	Peninsular Malaysia, Southern Thailand, and Sumatra	It is a large tree up to 50 metre tall, has red flowers and elongated. Its oval-shaped fruit contains yellow flesh.[citation needed]
	Durio macrantha Kosterm.		Mt. Leuser National Park, North Sumatra
	Durio mansoni (Gamble) Bakh.	Tan duyin, Turimi	Thailand and Myanmar
	Durio oxleyanus Griff.	durian sukang, durian beludu, isu or kerontangan	Peninsular Malaysia, Sumatra, and Borneo	It is a fairly large tree up to 40 m (130 ft) tall. It produces small, round, greyish-green fruits with large, stiff, broadly pyramidal, slightly curved spines. The flesh is yellow, smooth-textured and sweet.[citation needed]
	Durio testudinarius Becc.	tortoise or kura-kura durian	Borneo	It is a medium-sized tree up to 25 m (82 ft) tall. Being a self-pollinated species, it is less variable, and has an extended flowering season. The flesh of its fruit is pale yellow and has a stronger aroma than other species of Durio.[citation needed]
