Eurya is a genus of about 70 species of flowering plants in the family Pentaphylacaceae.[1]

Fossil record

Several fossil seeds of Eurya stigmosa have been described from Middle Miocene strata of the Fasterholt area near Silkeborg in central Jutland, Denmark.[2] Eurya macrofossils have also been described from late Zanclean strata of the Pliocene in Pocapaglia, Italy.[3] Seed fossils of Eurya stigmosa were also reported from the Early Pleistocene (Calabrian stage) of Madeira Island (Atlantic Ocean, Portugal)[4]

Species

The leaves of Eurya are eaten by caterpillars of some Lepidoptera, such as the engrailed (Ectropis crepuscularia).
