Blumeopsis is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae.[1][2] Its size can range from 25–100 centimeters (9.8–39.4 inches).

Blumeopsis is sometimes treated as monotypic, including only Blumeopsis flava.[3][4][5] Some sources accept a second species, Blumeopsis falcata.[6]

Blumeopsis can also be used for medical purposes as it has been shown to help with cough, colds, and bronchial diseases.

The genus is native to southern China , the Indian Subcontinent, and Southeast Asia.[6][7]
