Aimara is a genus of flowering plants in the family Brassicaceae. It contains a single species, Aimara rollinsii, a subshrub endemic to Antofagasta Region of northern Chile, where it grows in subalpine habitats in the Andes.
The species was first described as Menonvillea rollinsii by Ihsan Ali Al-Shehbaz & Clodomiro Fidel Segundo Marticorena in 1990. In 2013 Al-Shehbaz and Diego L. Salariato placed it in the new monotypic genus Aimara as Aimara rollinsii.
