Rehderodendron is a genus of five species of flowering plants in the family Styracaceae, native to southeastern Asia, from southwestern China south to Myanmar and Vietnam.[1]

The genus name of Rehderodendron is in honour of Alfred Rehder (1863–1949), a German-American botanical taxonomist and dendrologist who worked at the Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University.[2] It was first described and published in Sinensia Vol.2 on page 109 in 1932.[3]

The species are small deciduous trees growing to 10–15 m tall.[1]
