Etymologie : D'après J. Knight (Cult. Prot. 102. 1809): "The name is derived from ϱοϖαλον [ροπαλον]; on account of its club-shaped stigma." Edwards et al. (in Prance et al., Fl. Neotrop. Monogr., 100: 117. 2007) indiquent par erreur que Roupala dérive d'un nom vernaculaire guyanais.

Type : Roupala montana Aubl. 1775 (Guyane française, montagne des Chevaux).
