Camptocarpus linearis is a species of plant in the Apocynaceae family.

[3] Joseph Decaisne,[4] the botanist who first formally described the species, named it after its narrow (linearis in Latin) leaves.

Its lance-shaped, very narrow, linear leaves are 1 millimeter wide by 2.5 centimeters long.

Its short, sparse Inflorescences occur at the junction between the leaves and stem and have 1–3 flowers.

[6][7] The pollen of Camptocarpus linearis is shed as permanent tetrads.
