Capula is a genus of leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae. It contains three species distributed in western China.[2] It is a member of the section "Capulites" in the tribe Hylaspini of the subfamily Galerucinae, alongside Furusawaia (including Yunnaniata), Nepalogaleruca and Himaplosonyx. All species in Capula are wingless, a character shared by the other genera in the section Capulites.[3][4]
