Angianthus is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. All species of this genus are endemic to Australia.
==Taxonomy== The genus was first described by Johann Christoph Wendland in 1810, for the species Angianthus tomentosus. The genus name derives from the Greek: angeion, a vessel or cup, and anthos, flower, and refers to the cup-like shape of the ring of broad pappus-scales. Angianthus tomentosus, although originally the type species, is now considered to be a synonym of Siloxerus tomentosus, but the genus name Angianthus is conserved against Siloxerus.
