Uvaria uhrii is a plant in the custard apple family Annonaceae endemic to Queensland, Australia. It is a vine with a stem diameter up to 9 cm (3.5 in), first described as Melodorum uhrii by Ferdinand von Mueller in 1867, and transferred to the genus Uvaria in 2010 by botanists Linlin Zhou, Yvonne Su, and Richard Saunders. It inhabits rainforest from Cooktown southwards to Proserpine.[4][5]
