Gamboge \Gam*boge"\, n.
A concrete juice, or gum resin, produced by several species
of trees in Siam, Ceylon, and Malabar. It is brought in
masses, or cylindrical rolls, from Cambodia, or Cambogia, --
whence its name. The best kind is of a dense, compact
texture, and of a beatiful reddish yellow. Taken internally,
it is a strong and harsh cathartic and emetic. [Written also
camboge.]
[1913 Webster]

Note: There are several kinds of gamboge, but all are derived
from species of Garcinia, a genus of trees of the
order Guttifer[ae]. The best Siam gamboge is thought
to come from Garcinia Hanburii. Ceylon gamboge is
from G. Morella. G. pictoria, of Western India,
yields gamboge, and also a kind of oil called gamboge
butter. Gambogian
