Metteniusaceae are a family of flowering plants, the only family in the order Metteniusales.[1] It consists of about 10 genera and 50 species[2] of trees, shrubs, and lianas, primarily of the tropics. The family was formerly restricted to just Metteniusa, but it is now expanded with a number of genera that were formerly placed in the widely polyphyletic Icacinaceae.

## Genera[edit]

As of June 2016[update], the Angiosperm Phylogeny Website accepts 11 genera:[3]

* Apodytes \- c. 6 species
* Calatola \- 7 species
* Dendrobangia \- 3 species
* Emmotum \- c. 10 species
* Metteniusa \- 7 species
