Homalomena is a genus of flowering plants in the family Araceae.

The name derives apparently from a mistranslated Malayan vernacular name, translated as homalos, meaning flat, and mene = moon.

The plants of this genus are clump-forming evergreen perennials with mainly heart-shaped or arrowheaded shaped leaves.

The flowers are tiny and without petals, enclosed in a usually greenish spathe hidden by the leaves.

[4] Some authors have proposed splitting the genus and moving all the neotropical species of Homalomena to Adelonema.
