 Small evergreen tropical tree or shrub, 3-5 (-10)m high, possible origin Java, cultivated for fruit; leaves alternate, pinnate, 15-25cm long, shortly petiolate, leaflets 7-9, sensitive to touch like certain Mimosa species; inflorescences panicles 2-5cm long, in the axils of old leaves; flower with a calyx of 5 pink sepals surrounding the purple corolla; fruit a large berry, 5-8cm long, characteristic star shape in cross-section, yellowish-green, orange-yellow when ripe; each fruit cell with 5 seeds.  Small evergreen tropical tree or shrub, 3-5 (-10)m high, possible origin Java, cultivated for fruit; leaves alternate, pinnate, 15-25cm long, shortly petiolate, leaflets 7-9, sensitive to touch like certain Mimosa species; inflorescences panicles 2-5cm long, in the axils of old leaves; flower with a calyx of 5 pink sepals surrounding the purple corolla; fruit a large berry, 5-8cm long, characteristic star shape in cross-section, yellowish-green, orange-yellow when ripe; each fruit cell with 5 seeds.

 +"There are 2 distinct classes of carambola - the smaller, very sour type, richly flavored, with more oxalic acid; the larger, so-called "sweet" type, mild-flavored, rather bland, with less oxalic acid... \\
 +In 1975, 16 carambola selections and 2 named cultivars were assayed at the United States Citrus and Subtropical Products Laboratory, Winter Haven, Florida. Preliminary taste tests ranked 'No. 17, 'No. 37', 'No. 42' and 'Tean Ma' as preferred. In a later test, 'Dah Pon' was ranked above 'Tean Ma'. 'No. 17' (º Brix 9.9) was described as "sweet, good and apple-like". 'No. 37' (º Brix 6.7), as "sour and sweet". 'No. 42' (º Brix 8.3), as "sour, tart and apple-like". 'Dah Pon' (º Brix 8.0), as "good and mild". 'Tean Ma (º Brix 7.2), as "sweet, good and mild". Analyses showed that these 5 were among those with relatively high ascorbic acid content-'No. 17, 30 mg; 'Dah Pon', 30 mg; 'No. 37', 37 mg; 'No. 42', 37 mg; and 'Tean Ma', 41 mg. 'No. 40' had 43 mg and 'No. 11', 50 mg, whereas 'M-23007' had only 14 mg and 'No. 10' only 17 mg." \\

 +An aroma extract prepared from stored fruits was described as sweet, estery and fruity (peach/apricot/plum-like). Quantitatively, the most abundant components were hydrocarbons like tricose-1-ene (21.4%) and pentacose-1-ene (10.3%) and acids like linoleic acid (15.5%) and palmitic acid (12.3%). 57 esters accounted for 9.0%, providing fruiy shades. Methyl N-methyl anthranilate (2.4%), methyl anthranilate (0.7%), and ethyl N-methyl anthranilate (0.2%) provide grape-like notes. As the odor of starfruit is described as peach/apricot/plum-like, γ-lactones (peach-like, C10 0.4%, C11 0.05%, C12 1.8%) and δ-lactones (apricot-like, C11 trace, C12 0.07%, C13 1.5%) are sensory important. Very potent odorants are carotenoid degradation products, a number of them were identified: geranyl acetone (0.3%), β-ionone (0.8%), β-damascenone (0.02%), (E)- and (Z)-dehydro-β-ionone (0.1%, trace), β-ionol (0.9%), and 4-hydroxy-β-iononl (0.05%), as well as some interesting megastigma-4,6,8-trienes (rose-raspberry?, E,E 0.3%, E,Z 0.2%, Z,E 0.9%, Z,Z 0.07%) and oxo-derivatives like megastigma-5,8(E)-dien-4-one (0.3%) and megastigma-5,8(Z)-dien-4-one (0.1%). \\

 +"Earlier, it has been considered to be a sour-tasting fruit with a relatively high oxalic acid content and consequently of little commercial value for consumption as fresh fruit. New, sweet-flavoured cultivars with a low oxalic acid content are rapidly defying the old notion. The unique (five cornered) star like shape and sweet taste have a strong appeal and liked by many." \\

 +"The starfruit neurotoxin caramboxin is metabolized and excreted by the kidneys. In healthy individuals caromboxin is readily flushed from the body, but in compromised individuals with renal disease or failure, it accumulates and signs of neurotoxicity, such as the dreaded hiccups, begins. I’ve seen starfruit consumption discouraged, or forbidden, for those with kidney failure or on dialysis, but not nearly frequently enough... consumption of large amounts of starfruit induces oxalate crystal nephropathology and acute renal failure (or exacerbates an existing disorder), preventing the clearance of caramboxin, leading to neurotoxicity in the form of hiccups. Once renal dysfunction clears up, the hiccups go away." \\
 +Aqueous solutions of caramboxin lose their biological activity after a few hours. Caramboxin undergoes an intramolecular cyclization (condensation) to an inactive compound. \\
