Ixeris is a genus of Asian flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. [2]

Concepts of which species should be included in the genus have changed in recent years because of the use of molecular investigations. [3] Numerous species formerly regarded as members of Ixeris have been moved to other genera; (Agoseris , Crepidiastrum , Ixeridium , Lactuca , Paraixeris , Paraprenanthes , Sonchella or Youngia). [1] Species remaining in Ixeris or of uncertain affiliations are listed below.
