Coffea benghalensis

Coffea benghalensis is a species of Coffea found in India, Bangladesh, Bhutan, and Nepal.

It is primarily found in tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests in damp areas such as along streams, but can also be found in dry mixed forests and sal (Shorea robusta) forests such as the Mahananda Wildlife Sanctuary in West Bengal, as well as monsoon forests, where it forms a thick undergrowth layer.
