}}Virola elongata (syn. Virola theiodora ) is a species of tree in the Myristicaceae family. The tree is native to Panama, Guyana, Brazil (Acre, Amazonas, Mato Grosso, Pará, Rondônia and Roraima), Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru.[1][2] It is also found in Suriname.[2] Virola elongata is thin and {{convert|7.5-23|m|abbr=on|sigfig=2}} tall, sometimes {{convert|30|m|abbr=on}} tall.[2]

The trunk is about {{convert|43|cm|abbr=on|sigfig=2}} in diameter, cylindrical and has smooth brown and gray bark. The fruit is ellipsoidal to subglobular, {{convert|11–20|mm|abbr=on}} long, {{convert|10–15|m|abbr=on}} in diameter and comes in groups of 40.[2] The tree is found in evergreen forests and in scrub up to {{convert|800|m|abbr=on}} in altitude.[2]

The Yanomami people use the powdered resin as an entheogen known as nyakwána which is inhaled or "snuffed" into the nasal cavity, it contains a high concentration of 5-MeO-DMT and DMT.[3]

Virola elongata extracts have weak antibacterial activity against Enterococcus faecalis and Staphylococcus aureus.[4]
