Plathymenia reticulata (Portuguese: vinhático) is a species of legume native to much of eastern South America.

[6] It occurs in Suriname, Bolivia, Paraguay, the Misiones Province of Argentina and 14 states of Brazil,[7] at altitudes of 30–1,300 metres (100–4,300 ft).

[2] Plathymenia reticulata is known by many different common names throughout its wide range, but it is generally referred to as vinhático.

[5] The timber of P. reticulata contains terpenes that preserve the wood from termite attack and from rotting, even when exposed to the weather.

[5] It is the preferred timber for constructing dugout canoes in Brazil,[9] and is widely used for anchors, fence-posts and for many other structural uses.
