SEED for id: I found this seed in a sandy place near Cherai beach, Kochi last year. i thought about it yesterday and got it out..there was something wobbling inside so i cracked it open.

Can someone id this seed?

... has suggested that it may be Cerbera odollam. can others comment ?

Beware, the seed is extremely poisonous.

Could it be Calophyllum inophyllum (Family: Calophyllaceae)? Just a wild guess..
