Koehneola is a monotypic genus of flowering plants in the daisy family.[3][4] There is only one known species, Koehneola repens.[2]

It is native to Cuba.[5]

The genus name of Koehneola is in honour of Bernhard Adalbert Emil Koehne (1848–1918), a German botanist and dendrologist born near Striegau, a town known today as Strzegom, Poland,[6] The Latin specific epithet of repens means creeping or crawling.[7] Both genus and species were described and published in Symb. Antill. Vol.2 on pages 463–464 in 1901.[2]
