Mitrephora petelotii is a tropical forest tree from Vietnam (and possibly neighbouring Cambodia) in the custard apple family, reaching about 8 m. It is a wild species known mainly from botanical records, not a commonly grown garden plant.
Mitrephora petelotii is a species of plant in the family Annonaceae. It is native to Vietnam. Aruna Weerasooriya and Richard Saunders, the botanists who first formally described the species, named it in honor of the French botanist Paul Alfred Pételot, who collected the holotype specimen that they examined.
