''Remusatia'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Araceae. It contains 4 known species, one of which was described in 1987. This species was initially placed in genus ''Gonatanthus'' called ''Gonatanthus ornatus''. After the genus had been sunk into ''Remusatia'' its new name was ''Remusatia ornatus'', but it was later changed to ''Remusatia hookeriana''.〔Govaerts, R. & Frodin, D.G. (2002). World Checklist and Bibliography of Araceae (and Acoraceae): 1-560. The Board of Trustees of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. 〕 The species of ''Remusatia'' are native to Asia, Africa, and Australia.〔(Kew World Checklist of Selected Plant Families )〕 They are typically found in subtropical forests and are tuberous plants with heart shaped peltate leaves. A characteristic feature of ''Remusatia'' is its stolons that emerge from the tubers on which is produced bulbils that allow the plant to reproduce. The bulbils cling to animals which allows for them to be distributed and is likely the primary cause for their large distribution. Flowering of many ''Remusatia''s are often rare and bulbils serve as their primary means of reproduction. The spathes of ''Remusatia'' are yellow and the spadix are white with a fragrance except for ''Remusatia yunnanensis'' whose spathe is red.〔(Flora of China Vol. 23 Page 71, 岩芋属 yan yu shu, ''Remusatia'' Schott in Schott & Endlicher, Melet.
