Moltkiopsis is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Boraginaceae. The only species is Moltkiopsis ciliata.

The genus name of "Moltkiopsis" is in honour of Joachim Godske Moltke (1746–1818), the Prime Minister of Denmark from 1814 to 1818. He was also father of Prime Minister Adam Wilhelm Moltke and the son of Danish diplomat Adam Gottlob Moltke. The Latin specific epithet of "ciliata" is derived from "ciliatus" meaning fringed.
Both genus and species were first described and published in J. Arnold Arbor. Vol.34 on pages 2-3 in 1953.
