Peracarpa is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Campanulaceae. It contains a single species, Peracarpa carnosa, a perennial which ranges from the Russian Far East to tropical Asia and New Guinea.[2]

Peracarpa is part of Peracarpeae, a small tribe with three genera: Homocodon, Heterocodon, and Peracarpa.[3] The systemic position of the Peracarpa is unclear since it has not been sampled within phylogenetic studies. [3]
