Stellera is a genus of flowering plants in the family Thymelaeaceae, comprising a single species, Stellera chamaejasme, which is found in mountainous regions of northern and western Tibet, Nepal, Bhutan, the Indian state of Uttarakhand, Siberia and Mongolia. The genus name Stellera (not to be confused with the entirely unrelated Stellaria) commemorates Georg Wilhelm Steller (1709–1746), while the specific epithet chamaejasme is a rendering into botanical Latin orthography of the Greek khamai (‘on the ground’) and iasme (‘jasmine’).
