Chilocarpus conspicuus is a plant in the genus Chilocarpus, in the family Apocynaceae. It is native to Borneo. The only information known about this species is from a collection from Mt Kinabalu, Brunei and two collections from Sarawak. There are several similar species that are alike in flower and without examining the distinctive fruit of this species, a specimen may be mistaken for Chilocarpus denudatus. It is an accepted species, first described by Steenis and originally published in Blumea 19: 162 1971.[1][2]
It is large woody climber which grows up to 15 metres tall. Its branchlets are glabrous. Its leaves are described as: "Inflorescence terminal and axillary in the axils of upper leaves, 3.5-7 cm long; Stamens inserted at 2.3-2.5 mm from corolla base which is 0.5-0.6 of tube length." It has moniliform fruit.[3]
