Coccoloba caracasana (from Greek kokkolobis, the ancient name given to a vine by the appearance of its fruit) is a tree in the family Polygonaceae.
This is a small to medium tree, often with multiple trunks, puberulent to glabrescent stems.
The leaves are broadly oblong or suborbicular, rounded to truncate to subcordate at the base.
The flowers are small, greenish and fragrant, arranged in racemose inflorescences clustered in terminal and lateral spikes.
The distribution of this tree ranges from Guatemala to Panama and northern South America, where it is most common in the Pacific regions.
