Pseudohydrosme is a genus of flowering plants in the Araceae family. It contains only two species, P. buettneri and P. gabunensis, both endemic to tropical rain forests in Gabon.[2] The genus is believed to be closely related to Anchomanes and is likely to be sunk into Anchomanes due to molecular evidence.[3][4]
