Schuurmansiella is a monotypic genus of plant in the family Ochnaceae. As of June 2014[update] The Plant List recognises the single species Schuurmansiella angustifolia.[3] The specific epithet angustifolia is from the Latin meaning "narrow leaf".[2]
Schuurmansiella angustifolia grows as a shrub up to 10 metres (30 ft) tall. The flowers are white with a pink base. The ellipsoid fruits measure up to 0.85 cm (0.3 in) long.[2]
Schuurmansiella angustifolia is endemic to Borneo and confined to western Sarawak. Its habitat is lowland, mainly kerangas, forests from sea-level to 600 metres (2,000 ft) altitude.[2]
