Hopea gregaria is a species of flowering plant in the family Dipterocarpaceae. It is a tree native to southeastern Sulawesi.[2] It is a medium-sized tree which grows up to 35 meters tall. It is native to primary lowland rain forest, where it grows gregariously in well-drained, hilly, and steep places on stony and clay soils from 20 to 300 meters elevation.
