* Dipterocarpoideae: the largest of the subfamilies, it contains 13 genera and about 475 species. Distribution includes the [[Seychelles]], [[Sri Lanka]], [[India]], [[Southeast Asia]] to [[New Guinea]], and a large distribution in Borneo, where they form the dominant species in the lowland forests. North Borneo ([[Brunei]], [[Sabah]] and [[Sarawak]]) is the richest area in the world for dipterocarp species.<ref name = Ashton/> The Dipterocarpoideae can be divided morphologically into two groups,<ref name = Ashton2/><ref>Maury-Lechon, G. and Curtet, L.

**[[Valvate]] - [[Dipterocarpeae]] group (''Anisoptera, Cotylelobium, Dipterocarpus, Stemonoporus, Upuna, Vateria, Vateriopsis, Vatica''). The genera of this group have valvate sepals in fruit, solitary vessels, scattered resin canals, and basic chromosome number x = 11.
 
** [[Imbricate]] - [[Shoreae]] group (''[[Balanocarpus]], [[Hopea]], [[Parashorea]], [[Shorea]]''). The genera of this group have imbricate sepals in fruit, grouped vessels, resin canals in tangential bands, and basic chromosome number x = 7.

A recent genetic study found that the Asian dipterocarps share a common ancestor with the [[Sarcolaenaceae]], a tree family endemic to Madagascar.<ref>M. Ducousso, G. Béna, C. Bourgeois, B. Buyck, G. Eyssartier, M. Vincelette, R. Rabevohitra, L. Randrihasipara, B. Dreyfus, Y. Prin. The last common ancestor of Sarcolaenaceae and Asian dipterocarp trees was ectomycorrhizal before the India-Madagascar separation, about 88 million years ago. ''Molecular Ecology'' 13: 231 January 2004.</ref> This suggests that ancestor of the Dipterocarps originated in the southern supercontinent of [[Gondwana]], and that the common ancestor of the Asian dipterocarps and the Sarcolaenaceae was found in the India-Madagascar-Seychelles land mass millions of years ago, and were carried northward by India, which later collided with Asia  and allowed the dipterocarps to spread across Southeast Asia and Malaysia. The first dipterocarp pollen has been found in Myanmar (which at that time was part of the [[Indian plate]]) and it dates from the upper [[Oligocene]].<ref name=Morley>Morley, R.J. 2000. Origin and Evolution of Tropical Rain Forests. [[Wiley-Blackwell]], NY.</ref> The sample appears to slowly increase in terms of diversity and abundance across the region into the mid-[[Miocene]]<ref name=Morley/> Chemical traces of dipterocarp resins have been found dating back to the [[Eocene]] of India.
 
 
 
==Fossilized arthropods==
 
52-million-year-old [[amber]] found in the [[Gujarat]] province, [[India]], containing a large amount of fossilized [[arthropod]]s, was identified as sap from the Dipterocarpaceae family.<ref>Sample, Ian.

==Ecology==
 
Dipterocarpaceae species can be either evergreen or deciduous.<ref>{{cite journal | last1 = Smitinand | first1 = Tem | last2 = Santisuk | first2 = Thatwatchai | year = 1981 | title = Dipterocarpaceae of Thailand with Special Reference to Silvicultural Ecology | url = | journal = Malaysian Forester | volume = 44 | issue = | pages = 377–85 }}</ref> Species occurring in Thailand grows from sea level to c. 1300 m elevation. Environments in which the species of the family occur in Thailand include: Lowland dipterocarp forest 0–350 m; Riparian fringe; Limestone hills; and Coastal hills.
