Hoehnea is a genus of plants in the family Lamiaceae, first described with this name in 1939. It is native to South America, primarily southern Brazil and Paraguay.[1][2][3]

The genus name of Hoehnea is in honour of Frederico Carlos Hoehne (1882-1959), who was a Brazilian botanist.[4] It was first described and published in Repert. Spec. Nov. Regni Veg. Beih. Vol.115 on page 8 in 1939.[3]
