Deprea is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Solanaceae.[1]
It includes 55 species native to the tropical Americas, ranging from Costa Rica to Venezuela, Northern Brazil, and Bolivia.[1]
The genus name of Deprea is in honour of Alexandre-Armand Desprez (1747–1829), a French doctor and botanist.[2]
