Stomatanthes is a genus of African and South American plants in the boneset tribe within the sunflower family.
Although Stomatanthes is classified in the subtribe Eupatoriinae in the influential 1987 classification of King and Robinson, subsequent research shows that it belongs elsewhere in the tribe Eupatorieae, as it is not closely related to Eupatorium or Eutrochium.
