Eosanthe is a monotypic genus of flowering plants in the family Rubiaceae.[1] The genus contains only one species, viz. Eosanthe cubensis, which is endemic to Sierra Cristal National Park, in Cuba.[2]
The genus name of Eosanthe is in reference to the goddess from Greek mythology, Eos.[3]
The genus was circumscribed by Ignaz Urban in Symb. Antill. (Urban) Vol.9 (Issue 1) on page 162 in 1923.
