Tabebuia ochracea,^[1]^[2] known as corteza amarillia in Spanish and ipê-amarelo in Portuguese, is a timber tree native to South America, Cerrado and Pantanal vegetation in Brazil. It is very similar, closely related to, and often confused with the Golden Trumpet Tree, Tabebuia chrysotricha. It is a seasonal flowering tree, blossoming only during spring (September). During this time, all leaves fall and only flowers remain in the crown.

There are three subspecies:

Tabebuia ochracea ssp. heterotricha
Tabebuia ochracea ssp. neochrysantha
Tabebuia ochracea ssp. ochracea
