Clematicissus angustissima is a vine in the Vitaceae family, endemic to the Geraldton area of Western Australia.[2][3]
The species was first described as Vitis angustissima in 1859 by Ferdinand von Mueller, from a specimen collected by Oldfield on the Murchison River.[4][5] In 1887Jules Planchon reassigned it to his newly described genus, Clematicissus,[4][6] with Clematicussus angustissima being the type species.[6]

C. angustissima is a deciduous vine growing from numerous tubers. The tendrils are leaf-opposed and the five-palmate (3-7) leaves can be entire or deeply indented. The inflorescence is leaf-opposed and multi-flowered with congested heads. Both calyx and corolla are five-lobed. The berries are fleshy and purplish-black to black when mature.[3]
Habitat
It is found in woodlands, generally on sand or loam.[3]
