Xingxueanthus is an extinct genus of plants known only from one fossil specimen of a carbonized inflorescence from middle Jurassic China. It cannot be grown and has no living members, so no care applies.
Xingxueanthus is an extinct genus of plants of dubious affinity which existed in China during the middle Jurassic period. It was first named by Xin Wang and Shijun Wang in 2010 and the type species is Xingxueanthus sinensis.
Xingxueanthus is known only from a single specimen of carbonized inflorescence. There is debate as to the taxonomic position of Xingxueanthus, being either an early Angiosperm, a new class of Gymnosperm, or a poorly preserved conipherophyte cone.
