Saurauia copelandii

Saurauia copelandii is a species of plant in the Actinidiaceae family.

[3] Adolph Daniel Edward Elmer, the American botanist who first formally described the species, named it in honor of Edwin Copeland, another American botanist who collected many botanical samples in the Philippines.

Its oblong leathery leaves vary in size, but are generally 30 by 10 centimeters and their tips are rounded.

The leaves have 12-17 pairs of secondary veins emanating from their midribs.

Its flowers are pendulous and have a 2 centimeter long specialized leaf, called a bract, at their base.
