Bocagea is a genus of plants in the family Annonaceae. It comprises four species distributed in Brazil. Augustin Saint-Hilaire, the French botanist who first formally described the genus, named it after Josephi Mariae de Souza du Bocage, who he said beautifully translated a poem about flowers into Portuguese and illustrated it.
All species of Bocagea are rare and are at least endangered.
