Basionym: Amomum fenzlii Kurz.
Common shrubs in open sunny places of inland forests on clayey loam.
This is recorded to be the bee repellent plant of the Shompen tribe.  We could not see the procedure of gathering honey but got the information from the Interpreter. The attached photograph shows a Shompen man on way to food gathering and hunting.  Flowers of this plant can be seen here along with leaves of Macaranga nicobarica used for wrapping and as a plate.
