Primulina is a genus of flowering plants in the African violet family Gesneriaceae. It includes 232 species native to southern and north-central China and northern Vietnam.[1] The species are mostly calciphilous, and typically grow in the extensive limestone karst regions of China and Vietnam.[2]

In 2011 the genus was expanded with the transfer of many species that had previously been placed in the genus Chirita.[3] In 2016 five species were moved to the genus Deinostigma,[4] which was merged into Metapetrocosmea in 2022.[5] A phylogenetic study published in 2023 concluded that the southernmost three species of Primulina, endemic to the Langbiang Plateau in southern Vietnam, constitute a separate genus which was named Langbiangia.[2]
