Monodora stenopetala is a species of plant in the family Annonaceae.

[3] Daniel Oliver, the English botanist who first formally described the species, named it after its narrow (Latinized form of Greek στενος, stenos)[4] petals.

The sepals are smooth, curved backwards, and have wavy or fringed margins.

The outer petals are yellow, 3.5–5 by 0.2–0.4 centimeters, and smooth or lightly hairy.

[7] It has been observed growing in dense thickets and woodslands at elevations from 100 to 500 meters.
