Anisotes pubinervius is a plant species found in the acanthus family, native to the Afromontane archipelago in eastern Africa. It can also be found in isolated populations in southern Africa and Nigeria. The species is named for the fine down that covers its main leaf veins. It typically grows in understorey shade in riparian or low altitude evergreen forests. The plant has pale brownish bark, opposite and elliptic leaves, and two-lipped flowers that attract forest sunbirds for pollination. It reproduces through seed production and suckers that develop from damaged plants. It is found in various countries in Africa and is not currently threatened as a species.
