The '''Cyrillaceae''' are a small [[family (biology)|family]] of [[flowering plant]]s in the order [[Ericales]], native to warm temperate to tropical regions of the [[Americas]]. The family comprises two genera, ''[[Cliftonia]]'' and ''[[Cyrilla]]'', each containing a single species,<ref name="Christenhusz-Byng2016">{{cite journal |author1=Christenhusz, M. J.

However, additional species of ''Cyrilla'' are now often recognized and the genus is in need of taxonomic revision.
 
 
 
In the past, many botanists included a third genus, ''[[Purdiaea]]'', in the family, though recent research has shown this genus is better placed in the closely related family [[Clethraceae]].<ref>(Anderberg & Zhang 2002).</ref>
