Neosepicaea jucunda, commonly known as jungle vine, is a species of plant in the family Bignoniaceae, native to the Wet Tropics bioregion of Queensland, Australia. It is a twining vine with a stem diameter up to 7 cm (2.8 in) and trifoliate leaves. The inflorescence is a panicle produced from any part of the stem or branches, carrying a number of pinkish-purple tubular flowers. It was first described in 1864 as Haussmannia jucunda, and is considered to be of least concern.[4][5]
