Mallotus vitifolius Kuntze Melanolepis vitifolia[1] is a small tropical forest tree, endemic to Vietnam and Cambodia, in the family Euphorbiaceae.

[2] As its name suggests, Melanolepis vitifolia has a grapevine-shaped leaf in contrast with its more widespread relative M. multiglandulosa.

This species always has more deeply divided 3-palmatifid leaves, with an absence of teeth along the leaf margins and they are also more hairy than M.

multiglandulosa.
