Hoya querinoensis is a species of tropical plant in the oleander and frangipani family Apocynaceae. It is native to the Philippines and is found in a wet tropical biome. Hoya querinoensis was described by botanists Dale Kloppenburg and Monina V. Siar in 2007 in the journal Fraterna.[1]

Hoya querinoensis is highly similar to Hoya fischeriana, but varies in a few key ways. The corolla is wider in diameter at 1.2 centimetres (0.47 in); the pedicels are longer at 3.7 centimetres (1.5 in); the sepals are a more narrow lance-like shape.[2]
