Eriocapitella tomentosa, a species of flowering plant in the buttercup family Ranunculaceae, is native to Asia. The specific epithet tomentosa means "thickly matted with hairs, tomentum (padding)". It was formerly a member of genus Anemone and shares the common name Japanese anemone with several other Eriocapitella species. In Chinese, a common name is dàhuǒcǎo (大火草), which literally means "big fire grass" or "great fireweed".
