Anthoshorea cordata is a species of plant in the family Dipterocarpaceae. The species name cordata is derived from Latin (cordatus = heart-shaped) and refers to the shape of the leaf base. It is an emergent tree, up to 50 m, found in mixed dipterocarp forest on clay-rich soils over igneous rock.[3]

Anthoshorea cordata is endemic to western Borneo, native to Sarawak and northwestern Kalimantan. It is threatened by habitat loss.[1]
