Cupaniopsis tomentella, commonly known as Boonah tuckeroo,[2] is a species of flowering plant in the soapberry family and is endemic to south-eastern Queensland.
It is a tree with paripinnate leaves with usually 6 to 8 elliptic or oblong leaflets, and separate male and female flowers arranged in a panicle, the fruit an orange-yellow capsule with a red flush.
[2][3] This species was first formally described in 1863 by George Bentham from an unpublished description by Ferdinand von Mueller.
Bentham gave it the name Cupania tomentella from specimens collected by Walter Hill near Moreton Bay.
[4][5] In 1984, Sally T. Reynolds transferred the species to Cupaniopsis as C. tomentella in the journal Austrobaileya.
