Malperia is a North American plant genus in the tribe Eupatorieae within the family Asteraceae.[1][2]

There is only one known species, Malperia tenuis. This plant's common name is brown turbans or brownturbans. It is a rare plant native to the Sonoran Desert of the U.S. state of California (Imperial and San Diego Counties) and northwestern Mexico (Sonora, Baja California, Baja California Sur). This is a small annual with white or pinkish bell-shaped flowers.[3][4][5][6][7][8]

The name Malperia is based on an anagram of the last name of botanist Edward Palmer.[3][4]
