Muraltia is a genus of plants in the milkwort family (Polygalaceae) which is native to Southern and Eastern Africa. Most species are endemic to South Africa and 1 species is naturalized in Australia. It is named after Johnnes von Muralt, a Swiss botanist and surgeon. 
In 2006, the genus "Nylandtia", which contained 2 species, was merged into Muraltia. The 2 species formerly part of Nylandtia, "Muraltia scoparia" and "Muraltia spinosa". Nylandtia are commonly known as "Tortoise berry" plants ("skilpadbessie"). This is because of the bright edible berries that they produce, which are relished by the tortoise species of the fynbos.
