Allenbya is an extinct genus of water lilies in the family Nymphaeaceae containing a single species Allenbya collinsonae. The species is known from permineralized remains recovered from the Early Eocene Princeton Chert in British Columbia, Canada.
Allenbya collinsonae is known exclusively from the Princeton Chert, a fossil locality in British Columbia, Canada, that contains an anatomically preserved flora of Eocene Epoch age, with rich species abundance and diversity. The chert is located in exposures of the Allenby Formation on the east bank of the Similkameen River, 8.5 km (5.3 mi) south of the town of Princeton, British Columbia.
