Schoepfia is a genus of small hemiparasitic trees, flowering plants belonging to the family Schoepfiaceae.
The flower is subtended by a three-lobed epicalyx, it is composed of a bract and two bracteoles, which are all united into a single structure.
Recent molecular studies have shown Schoepfia to be more closely related to the families Misodendraceae and Loranthaceae, and to uphold the criteria of monophyly it must be excluded from Olacaceae.
[6] As of April 2021[update], Plants of the World Online accepted the following species:[1] The genus has a discontinuous distribution, being native to the Himalayas through China, Japan and Taiwan to Sumatra, and to tropical and subtropical America.
Haustoria were also firmly welded to the wrong things: rocks, buried pipes, concrete building foundations, etc.
[2] The young leaves of the S. schreberi are fed upon by the balloon-collared caterpillars of the metalmark butterfly Calydna sturnula, which are only known to feed upon this species.
