Bursera is a genus of about 100 species[1] of flowering plants in the family Burseraceae, native to tropical and warm temperate regions of the Americas, from the southern United States south to northern Argentina. A number of species from tropical Asia sometimes included in the genus are now treated in the separate genus Protium.

The species are shrubs and small to medium-sized trees up to 25 m tall.

The genus is named after the Danish botanist Joachim Burser (1583-1639).
