Daphne tenuiflora is a small shrub, of the family Thymelaeaceae. Daphne angustiloba is considered to be a synonym of D. tenuiflora,[1] although the Flora of China treats it as a separate species.[2] D. tenuiflora is native to China (Sichuan and Yunnan) and Myanmar.[2][3]

Daphne tenuiflora is an evergreen shub, reaching about 0.5 m tall. Its slender pale yellowish green branches grow sparsely. It is often found in high mountain forests at around 2700–5000 m in altitude.[2][3]
