Trilepisium madagascariense, the urnfig or false-fig, is a species of plant in the family Moraceae, with an extensive range in the subtropical and tropical Afrotropics.
[9] It usually branches high up to form a small and loosely pyramidal crown[8] with drooping twigs.
[9] The glossy and very dark elliptic leaves have a prominent driptip,[5] and measure up to 14 cm long.
[6] A methanol extract, fractions and isoliquiritigenin from the stem bark has been shown to possess antidiarrhoeal activities,[10] and previously unknown trilepisflavan and trilepisuimic acid compounds were isolated from it in 2012.
[11] Trilepisium madagascariense is a larval foodplant for the butterfly Cyrestis camillus sublineata.
