The Pointed Pearl Charaxes or Mountain Pearl Charaxes (''Charaxes acuminatus'') is a butterfly in the Nymphalidae family. It is found in Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Kenya, Tanzania, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Malawi, Zambia and Zimbabwe.〔(Afrotropical Butterflies: File H - Charaxinae - Tribe Charaxini )〕 The habitat consists of montane forests mostly at altitudes above 1,800 meters.
Both sexes are attracted to fermenting fruit and sometimes also sap oozing from wounds in the trunks and branches of trees and shrubs. Males are also attracted to damp patches. Adults are on wing from September to June.
The larvae feed on ''Allophylus'' species (including ''Allophylus alnifolius'', ''Allophylus chirindensis'', ''Allophylus abyssinicus'', ''Allophylus chaunostachys'' and ''Allophylus africanus'') and ''Bersama abyssinica''.
