Coreanomecon is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Papaveraceae.[1] Its native range is Korea. It contains only a single species, Coreanomecon hylomeconoides.[1]
The genus Coreanomecon and the species Coreanomecon hylomeconoides were first described by Takenoshin Nakai in 1935. The species has also been placed in Chelidonium and Hylomecon, but both morphological and molecular phylogenetic evidence suggest that although related to these genera, it forms a distinct lineage.[2]
