Annona cascarilloides is a species of plant in the Annonaceae family. It is endemic to Cuba.[1] According to William Edwin Safford,[2] the species was named it after the pattern of its leaf veins which resemble species of a different genus, that at the time Safford was writing was called Cascarilla, but is now synonymous with the genera Croton[3] and Ladenbergia.[4] Despite this assertion by Safford, August Grisebach, the German botanist who first formally described the species, makes no mention of Cascarilla in his 1866 entry.[5]
