This is a rare species vulnerable to extirpation. The wood is durable and is used for building houses and bridges and making furniture.
Hopea exalata was earlier separated from H. reticulata by having 15 as opposed to 10 stamens, but we find that both numbers are found in each entity and accordingly treat them as conspecific.
