Monodora undulata is a species of plant in the family Annonaceae. It is native to Cameroon, the Central African Republic, Ghana, Guinea, Ivory Coast, Liberia, Nigeria and Sierra Leone. Palisot de Beauvois the botanist and entomologist who first formally described the species using the basionym Xylopia undulata, named it after the wavy (undulātus, in Latin) margins of its petals.
It has been observed growing in swampy terrain and along rivers, in rain forests, at elevations of 0–700 meters (0–2,297 ft).
