Cremaspora is a genus of flowering plants in the Rubiaceae family. It is the only genus in the tribe Cremasporeae. It was described by George Bentham in 1849. The genus is widespread across much of sub-Saharan Africa from Senegal to Tanzania and south to Mozambique and Zimbabwe, in addition to Madagascar, Comoros, and Cape Verde. There are, however, only two currently recognized species.
