The monotypic plant genus "Eastwoodia" contains the single species "Eastwoodia elegans", a flower known by the common name yellow mock aster or yellow aster. It is endemic to California. It is a shrub which sends up several erect stems, each bearing a rounded, bright yellow flower. The stems have a shreddy bark and small leaves. This plant is found only on the grasslands and hillsides of central California, from the Bay Area south to the Tehachapis.

The genus was named for the American botanist Alice Eastwood.
