Adelmeria is a genus of perennial herbs in the family Zingiberaceae which are endemic to the Philippines.[1] Previously, Adelmeria had been considered a synonym of the genus Alpinia, however, after a study showed Alpina to be highly polyphyletic, it was determined in 2019 that Adelmeria was a distinct genus.[2]
