Apotreubia is a genus of liverworts in the family Treubiaceae.[1] There are four species, including: Apotreubia nana, which is found in subalpine New Guinea,[2] and Apotreubia pusilla, which has a disjunct distribution between eastern Asia (Himalayas to Japan ) and British Columbia.[3][4]

The genus name of Apotreubia is in honour of Melchior Treub (1851–1910), who was a Dutch botanist. He worked at the Bogor Botanical Gardens in Buitenzorg on the island of Java, south of Batavia, Dutch East Indies, gaining renown for his work on tropical flora.[5]
