Euthamia is a genus of flowering plants in the Asteraceae, commonly referred to as Goldentop. The species were formerly classed with Solidago, the goldenrods.

Euthamia species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including Coleophora intermediella (which feeds exclusively on E. graminifolia).
