Capelio is a genus of flowering plant in the Asteraceae first described as a genus in 1836 with the name Alciope.[2] It was renamed Capelio in 2002 after it was determined that the name Alciope was not legitimately published according to international nomenclatural rules.[3][4]
The entire genus is endemic to Cape Province in South Africa.[5]
