Xantonneopsis is a genus of plants in the family Rubiaceae. It contains only one known species, Xantonneopsis robinsonii, native to Vietnam.[1] The genus has been placed in the tribe Coffeeae,[2] but a transfer from that tribe to Octotropideae was suggested in 2007 on the basis of combined molecular and morphological evidence.[3]
