Recent classification systems place Yushania in the woody bamboo tribe Bambuseae, which is part of the supertribe Bambusodae. The species of Yushania are evergreen, spreading, thornless bamboos native to Himalayan, African, Chinese, and Southeast Asian mountains at moderate to high altitudes, up to 3000 m.
