Acalypha rubrinervis is an extinct plant in the spurge family (Euphorbiaceae), from the island of Saint Helena in the South Atlantic Ocean. It was called string tree on account of the thin pendulous inflorescences which resembled red strings. Disturbance following human settlement on the island destroyed its habitat and it was last seen in the 19th century. It is thus one of a number of island plants to have been driven to extinction by human activity.

The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species declared the plant extinct in 2012. A. dikuluwensis was endemic to copper-rich soils of eastern Katanga Province of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and was only found around Dikuluwe. The soils are derived from Katanga Supergroup Upper Cambrian Roan Group rocks. It was restricted to steppic savanna in copper outcrops, which were destroyed by surface mining. No specimens were found after 1959.
