Krukoviella is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Ochnaceae. It has one synonym Planchonella Tiegh.[1] The only species is Krukoviella disticha (Tiegh.) Dwyer[2]

Its native range is Peru and northern Brazil.[2]

The genus name of Krukoviella is in honour of Boris Alexander Krukoff (1898–1983), a Russian-born American botanist who collected in South America, West Africa and Sumatra. He was later a curator at the herbarium of the New York Botanical Garden.[3] The Latin specific epithet of disticha refers to distichus a Greek word meaning alternately opposed or in two ranks.[4] The genus was first published in J. Arnold Arbor. Vol.20 on page 295 in 1939,[1] and the species was first published in Torreya Vol.45 on page 71 in 1945.[2]
