Durian is the name of tropical plants originating from the Southeast Asian region, as well as the name of the fruit that can be eaten. This name is derived from the characteristic skin of his fruit is hard and sharp curves that resemble a thorn. The popular title is "king of all fruits" (King of Fruit). Durian is a controversial fruit, although many people love it, but others are sickened by its aroma.

In fact, plants with durian names are not a single species but a group of plants belonging to the Durio clan.

However, the term durian (without any affix) is usually Durio zibethinus. Other types of edible durians and sometimes found in the local market in Southeast Asia include lai (D. kutejensis), dependence (D. oxleyanus), turtle durian or kekura (D. graveolens), and lahung (D dulcis). Hereinafter, the description below refers to D. zibethinus.
