Zeyheria tuberculosa is a species of tree in the family Bignoniaceae. It is endemic to Brazil, and is threatened by habitat loss.
It is cited as a timber tree and is also used as an urban tree. The wood is flexible and durable. The tree is also used as an ornamental tree in landscaping. The fast growth and high reproduction rate allows this species to be used for the recovery of degraded areas. This has been shown to improve soil of previously deforested regions, adding nitrogen and potassium in the added organic matter.
