''Romnalda'' is a genus of monocotyledonous plants in the family Asparagaceae, subfamily Lomandroideae.〔 (They have also been placed in the Xanthorrhoeaceae.) four formally named species are known and accepted by botanical science.〔〔〔 The name ''Romnalda'' is an anagram of ''Lomandra'', a related though more common genus of hard–leaved lily-like plants. The genus ''Romnalda'' differs from Lomandra in growing exclusively in rainforests and having sparsely branched inflorescences with no spines. Plants have strap-like leaves and grow up to one metre (3 feet) tall often with a trunk and stilt roots reminiscent of a miniature ''Pandanus''. Species of ''Romnalda'' grow naturally in Queensland and Papua New Guinea. ==Species== * ''R. grallata'' – restricted to cloud forests on a few misty peaks in the Daintree Rainforest, Wet Tropics region, north-eastern Queensland.〔〔 * ''R. ophiopogonoides'',〔 synonym: ''Romnalda'' sp.
