''Euptelea'' is a genus of two species of flowering plants in the monogeneric family Eupteleaceae. The genus is found from Assam east through China to Japan, and consists of shrubs or small trees: *''Euptelea pleiosperma'' *''Euptelea polyandra'' The family Eupteleaceae has been recognized by many taxonomists. The APG III system (2009; unchanged from the APG II system of 2003 and the APG system of 1998), recognizes it and places it in the order Ranunculales, in the clade eudicots. The family consists of a single genus ''Euptelea'', with two species, native to eastern Asia. ''Euptelea polyandra'' is used as a food plant by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including The Engrailed. The flowers lack sepals and petals. The anthers are basifixed, and the leaves are arranged in whorls.〔Yi Ren, Hong-Fang Li, Liang Zhao, and Peter K. Endress. 2007. "Floral Morphogenesis in ''Euptelea'' (Eupteleaceae, Ranunculales)."
