Anthelepis undulata is a plant in the Cyperaceae family, first described in 1804 by George Henry Kendrick Thwaites as Cladium undulatum[2][3] (from a plant collected in southern Sri Lanka)[3] with the current name being given in 2019 with a reassignment to the new genus, Anthelepis, by Russell Barrett, Karen Wilson and Jeremy Bruhl.

[1][4] The species is found from Vietnam to Northern Australia[1] (Queensland, the Northern Territory,[1] and Western Australia[5]).

It is native also to Borneo, Hainan, Malaya, New Guinea, Sumatra, and Thailand, and is extinct in Sri Lanka.
