Schottariella is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Araceae. The only species is Schottariella mirifica.[1]

The species is found in Borneo.[1]

The genus name of Schottariella is in honour of Heinrich Wilhelm Schott (1794–1865), an Austrian botanist well known for his extensive work on aroids (Family Araceae).[2] The Latin specific epithet of mirifica means 'wonderful, amazing and miraculous'.[3] Both the genus and the species were first described and published in Bot. Stud. (Taipei) Vol.50 on page 269 in 2009.[1]
