Landerolaria is a genus of flowering plants in the sunflower family, Asteraceae. It includes ten species of aromatic shrubs endemic to Australia, native to the Northern Territory, Queensland, South Australia, Victoria, and Western Australia.1 Guy L. Nesom described the genus in 2020 to include species formerly placed in genus Olearia, which had been found to be polyphyletic. He named it for Australian botanist Nicholas Sèan Lander.2
