Species

Ulearum is a genus of flowering plants in the family Araceae. A single species, Ulearum sagittatum, composed the genus from 1905 until the 1970s when a second species was thought to have been discovered, but a new genus was later created for it and its name was changed from Ulearum reconditum to Bognera recondita in 1984. Another species, Ulearum donburnsii, was described in 2003. Ulearum is similar to Callopsis, but Callopsis is found only on Africa and so its relation is uncertain.
