Kailarsenia is a genus of flowering plants in the tribe Gardenieae of the family Rubiaceae.[1][2] Its native range is Indo-China to West Malesia.[3]

Kailarsenia belongs to the "Gardenia" clade, together with Aoranthe pro parte, Ceriscoides, Coddia, Gardenia, and Genipa.[4][5]

The genus name Kailarsenia is a taxonomic patronym honoring Kai Larsen, professor of botany at Århus University, Denmark.[6] The closely related genus Larsenaikia has been named as a taxonomic anagram derived from Kailarsenia.[6]
