Lagenandra is a genus of flowering plants in the Araceae family.[1] It consists of 16 species of plants that are endemic to Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and India.[2] The genus is similar to Cryptocoryne, but can be distinguished from it by its involute vernation. Cryptocoryne on the other hand exhibit convolute vernation.[3]
