 This paper is devoted to studying geometric and analytic properties of
 
-starlike mappings
 of complex order 
.
 By using Loewner chains, we obtain the growth theorems for
 
-starlike mappings
 of complex order 
 on the unit ball in reflexive complex Banach spaces, which generalize some results of Graham,
 Hamada and Kohr. As applications, several different kinds of distortion theorems for
 
-starlike mappings
 of complex order 
 are obtained. Finally, we prove that the Roper–Suffridge extension operators preserve the property
 of 
-starlike mappings
 of complex order 
 in complex Banach spaces, which generalizes many classical results.
