Cryptolepis delagoensis is a species of plant in the Apocynaceae family. It is native to Mozambique and South Africa.[1][2][3] Rudolf Schlechter,[4] the botanist who first formally described the species, named it after the location where the specimen he examined was found near Maputo Bay which was then called Delagoa Bay.[5]
