About

Gagnepainia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Zingiberaceae. It has three known species, all native to Indochina.

The genus was named in 1904 by Karl Moritz Schumann for French botanist François Gagnepain, who described many new species from the former colony of French Indochina.
