Musgravea is a genus of rainforest tree from northeastern Queensland.
It was published in 1890 by Ferdinand von Mueller, and named in honour of Sir Anthony Musgrave, Governor of Queensland from 1883 to 1888. Together with its closest relative Austromuellera, it lies within the subtribe Musgraveinae of tribe Banksieae in the subfamily Grevilleoideae of family Proteaceae. After Austromuellera, its closest relative is Banksia.
