:
This species is characterized by its relatively large elliptic leaves (for Ixora), lax well developed inflorescences with slender flexuous axes, flowers all pedicellate, somewhat small corollas, somewhat large fruits, and habitat in wet premontane and montane forest. The leaves are thin-textured when dry, but may be fleshy in life. The inflorescence may be drooping or pendulous. The flowers are known only from bud. This species is similar to Rudgea pendula, which is sympatric and similar, but differs in its glandular stipules and corolas with valvate appendaged lobes.
