Monotes adenophyllus is a species of flowering plant in the family Dipterocarpaceae.[2] It is a shrub or tree native to south-central Africa, where it ranges from western and southwestern Tanzania through northern Zambia and the southern Democratic Republic of the Congo to northern Angola. As a small tree it grows from 4 to 8 (12) metres tall. It grows in miombo woodland and bushy or wooded savanna, often on shallow rocky or lateritic soils, from 840 to 1,500 metres elevation.[1]

Three subdivisions are accepted:[2]

  • Monotes adenophyllus var. adenophyllus – western and southwestern Tanzania, northern Zambia, southern Democratic Republic of the Congo, and northern Angola[3]
  • Monotes adenophyllus f. albidus (P.A.Duvign.) Meerts – southern Democratic Republic of the Congo[4]
  • Monotes adenophyllus var. homblei (De Wild.) Meerts – western Tanzania, northern Zambia, southern Democratic Republic of the Congo, and northern Angola[5]
