Cryptotaenia, or honewort,[1] is a genus of herbaceous perennial plants, native to North America, Africa, and eastern Asia, growing wild in moist, shady places.

Species

Six species are accepted by Plants of the World Online as of February 2025.[2] Other studies suggested that the African and Canary Island species should be moved to other genera and that the Italian endemic Lereschia thomasii should be included in Cryptotaenia.[3][4] In 2016 the Canary Islands endemic Cryptotaenia elegans was moved to genus Daucus as Daucus elegans.[5]
