Nematolepis is a genus of seven species of plants in the family Rutaceae, all endemic to Australia.
They are shrubs or small trees with more or less flat leaves arranged alternately and flowers with five overlapping petals and ten stamens.
Plants in the genus Nematolepis are shrubs or small trees with their stems, leaves and sepals covered with shield-like scales.
The flowers are arranged singly or in cymes in leaf axils, and have five sepals, five partly overlapping petals and ten stamens, all free from each other in most species.
[2][3][4][5] The genus Nematolepis was first formally described in 1852 by Nikolai Turczaninow in the Bulletin de la Société Impériale des Naturalistes de Moscou and the first species described was Nematolepis phebalioides.
