Frankincense? You cannot just say the name

I keep hearing and seeing this typed.
Which Frankincense?  Did you know that there are 48 species of different frankincense?
Frankincense is only the common name.
All plants and trees have Latin names to distinguish their species.  
Take Lavender, there are so many species of Lavender, 
English Lavender  (Lavandula angustifolia)
French Lavender (Lavandula dentata)
Spanish Lavender  (Lavandula stoechas) 
and there are around 23 more
Each grown in different countries
Each have a different effect on the body
Again Lavender is the common name not the Latin name.
We must use the Latin name so we know which species we are talking about and what they are used for.
Frankincense Latin name is Boswellia and it italized 
So it is Boswellia carteri for example
Boswellia carteri is excellent for any type of skin condition and the tree grows in Somaliland and Somalia 
Boswellia sacra grows in Oman.
Both trees look alike, resin that comes out are different.
Why? because climate and soil are totally different so the resin tends to be different too. 
Boswellia sacra is good for any type of muscle and joint pain.
See the difference?  While they are both "Frankincense" it does not mean their therapeutic properties are the same.  Boswellia sacra has a higher percentage of  alpha-pinene in it than Boswellia sacra and this chemical is excellent for any type of muscle and joint pain.
There are 48 species of Frankincense in the Burseraceae family and about 23 species in the Genus Boswellia.
Boswellia neglecta is excellent for any anxiety issues
Boswellia serrata also for muscle and joint pain
Boswellia frereana is wonderful for arthritic problems as well as muscle and joint pain.
Boswellia papyifera is excellent for the central nervous system - for neuropathy etc.
These are just some examples.
I can go on but the best way to learn all about them is to get my book which explains each one and gives you recipes on how to use them.
So you see you cannot just say "Frankincense"
This pertains to the tree, resin and even the Essential Oil.
