Wendlandia psychotrioides is a species of plant of the Rubiaceae family.

It is an extinct species[1] apparently endemic to the Queensland wet tropics.

In 1889 & 1892 it was scientifically described by notable colonial Melbourne Herbarium botanist Ferdinand von Mueller. The specific name is described as like Psychotria. William A. Sayer[2][3] collected specimens of it about "Mt Bellenden Ker" in 1887 as recorded on Ferdinand von Mueller’s "9/87" label on his herbarium specimen sent on the 15th of March 1892 to the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, UK.[4] "On the Russell River; W. Sayers [sic]" is its location and collector recorded in Ferdinand von Mueller’s 1889 published original botanical description of this species.[5] The region of the Russell River is the same as the region of Mount Bellenden Ker.

Mueller’s 1889 original botanical description of the species was under the name Oldenlandia psychotrioides.[5][6] In 1892 he re-diagnosed it as constituting a species in this Wendlandia genus and wrote some comparative notes on it and related species in this genus.[7][8]
