Pentaceras is a monotypic genus (i.e. a genus that contains just one species) of plants in the citrus family Rutaceae. The sole included species is Pentaceras australe, commonly known as bastard crow's ash, penta ash or black teak. It is a medium-sized rainforest tree endemic to eastern Australia, first described in 1862.
Pentaceras australe grows in rainforest, often dry rainforest, from near sea level to an altitude of 900 m (3,000 ft) and occurs from near Gympie in Queensland to near Stroud in New South Wales.
