Lithocarpus kunstleri is a rainforest tree from Peninsular Malaysia, in the beech and oak family, found in lowland forest and swamps. It is a forest timber-scale tree rarely grown in gardens, so care depends on keeping it moist and in warm, humid, shaded or bright conditions.
Lithocarpus kunstleri is a species of flowering plant in the family Fagaceae. It is a tree endemic to Peninsular Malaysia. It is native to primary and secondary lowland rain forest and swamps up to 300 meters elevation. It is threatened by habitat loss.
The species was first described as Quercus kunstleri by Joseph Dalton Hooker in 1888. In 1931 Aimée Antoinette Camus placed the species in genus Lithocarpus as L. kunstleri.
