Lysiosepalum is a genus of 5 species of flowering plants in the genus of plants in the family Malvaceae, all endemic to the south-west of Western Australia.
==Description== All species of Lysiosepalum are shrubs up to high. The leaves are mostly linear to egg-shaped with 2 leaf-like stipules at the base of the petiole. There are petal-like sepals alternating between broad to narrow, and tiny, scale-like petals. Three egg-shaped or lance-shaped bracteoles are below the sepals, bracts at the base of the pedicels, the stamens are joined at the base and there are tiny staminodes.
