Calamphoreus inflatus is the only species of the flowering plant genus Calamphoreus in the family Scrophulariaceae. It is a shrub, formerly known as Eremophila inflata but unlike eremophilas, this species has twisted stamens and an urn-shaped petal tube which remains attached to the fruits after flowering.
