'''''Huberantha''''' is a genus of plants in the family Annonaceae and tribe Miliuseae. It is distributed in Australia, tropical Asia, East Africa and some Pacific islands.<ref name = POWO>{{cite web |url= https://powo.science.kew.org/taxon/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:77146143-1 |title= Huberantha Chaowasku |author= |date=n.d. |website=Plants of the World Online |publisher=The Trustees of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew |access-date=7 April 2020}}</ref> Tanawat Chaowasku named the genus "Huber's flowers" in honor of the German botanist Herbert Huber and to highlight its flowers as a distinguishing feature of the genus.<ref name=ChaowaskuJohnson2015/> A number of species have been moved here from the genus ''Polyalthia''.

==Description== The leaf veins of ''Huberantha'' form an interconnected net-like pattern. Their flowers are axillary. They have a single ovule and seed per ovary. A portion of their ovules remain fused to the seed coat forming a flat raphe. Their seed coats form spine-like intrusions into their endosperm. A layer of the outer pollen wall, called the infratectum, has a granular appearance.<ref name="ChaowaskuJohnson2015">{{cite journal|last1=Chaowasku|first1=Tanawat|last2=Johnson|first2=David M.|last3=van der Ham|first3=Raymond W.
