"Greyia" is a genus of plant in family Melianthaceae. It contains three species:
* "Greyia flanaganii", Bolus
* "Greyia radlkoferi"
* "Greyia sutherlandii"

Unlike other members of the Melianthaceae, "Greyia" has simple (undivided) leaves, flowers with ten stamens, and ovaries with parietal placentation. [cite book | author=Heywood, V. H. (ed.) | year = 1993 | title=Flowering Plants of the World | edition=2nd ed. | location=New York | publisher=Oxford University Press | pages=191-192 ] Because of this, the genus has sometimes been placed in a separate family Greyiaceae, but under the APG II system of classification, it is included in the Melianthaceae.
