Ampelocissus latifolia is a plant in the Vitoideae subfamily of the grape family native to the Indian subcontinent, including Bangladesh, India, Nepal, and Pakistan.[1]

It is the type species for the genus of Ampelocissus and was initially treated under its basionym, Vitis latifolia, which was described scientifically in 1824.[2][3] In 1884, Jules Émile Planchon reclassified the species under the genus Ampelocissus.[4]
