Anthodiscus chocoensis is a species of plant in the family Caryocaraceae family. It is an endangered species native to Colombia, Costa Rica, and Panama. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Anthodiscus chocoensis has a fragmented distribution across its range, which includes the Chocó and Valle del Cauca departments in Colombia, the Donoso District in Panama, and the south-western coast of Costa Rica (particularly on the Osa Peninsula and the area surrounding the Golfo Dulce). It primarily occurs in lowland tropical rainforests below 500 m (1,600 ft) above sea level, but may be found as high as 1,204 m (3,950 ft) above sea level. It is most common on hilly or otherwise irregular terrain.
