Ecdeiocoleaceae is the botanical name for a family of flowering plants. Such a family has rarely been recognized by taxonomists.

The APG II system, of 2003 (unchanged from the APG system, 1998), does recognize such a family, and assigns it to the order Poales in the clade commelinids, in the monocots. The family consists of two species only, found in Southwest Australia.
