Dombeya amaniensis is a flowering plant species found only in Tanzania. Formerly placed in the family Sterculiaceae, this artificial assemblage is now included in the Malvaceae by most authors.
Its relationships are not well determined. It seems to belong to an ill-defined clade containing congeners from eastern Africa and the Madagascar region, such as D. tiliacea and several species from the Mascarenes. Among the latter, D. delislei, D. elegans and D. punctata might be somewhat closer to the present species than the "rainforest group" around D. ciliata.
