Vvedenskya is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Apiaceae.

It just contains one species, Vvedenskya pinnatifolia Korovin[2] It is also in Subfamily Apioideae.

[2] The genus name of Vvedenskya is in honour of Aleksai Ivanovich Vvedensky (1898–1972), a Russian botanist, who worked at herbariums in Penza and Tashkent, Uzbekistan.

[4] The Latin specific epithet of pinnatifolia is a compound word derived from pinnate meaning feathered and folia from foliage meaning leaves.
