Bonamia menziesii, commonly known as Hawaiʻi Lady's Nightcap, is a species of flowering plant in the morning glory family, Convolvulaceae, that is endemic to Hawaii. It is a vine or twisting liana with branches that can reach 10 m (33 ft) in length. Hawaiʻi Lady's Nightcap inhabits steep slopes and level ground in dry, coastal mesic, mixed mesic, and, sometimes, wet forests at elevations of 150–625 m (492–2,051 ft).
Scattered populations exist on most main islands, but the total number of individuals remaining is probably fewer than 1000.[2]
The plant is threatened by habitat loss.[3] Habitat has been destroyed or degraded by development, fires, exotic plant species, and agriculture.[2] Military exercises damage part of the critical habitat on Oahu.[4] Feral pigs, goats, cattle, sheep and deer eat the plant and trample the habitat.[4] The non-native sweet potato bug (Physomerus grossipes) has been noted to feed on the plant.[4]
