Grafia is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Apiaceae.[1][2] It only contains one species, Grafia golaka (Hacq.) Rchb.

Its native range is southern central Europe. It is found in the countries of Albania, Italy and Yugoslavia.[1]

It grows on montane meadows.[3]

The genus name of Grafia is in honour of Žiga Graf (1801–1838), German doctor and botanist in Ljubljana.[4] It was first described and published by Ludwig Reichenbach in Handb. Nat. Pfl.-Syst. on page 219 in 1837.[1]
