Portenschlagiella is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Apiaceae. It has one known synonym of Portenschlagia Vis.[2] It only contains one known species, Portenschlagiella ramosissima (Port.) Tutin[1]

Its native range is southern Italy and the western Balkan Peninsula, and it is found in Albania, Italy and Yugoslavia.[1]

The genus name of Portenschlagiella is in honour of Franz Edler von Portenschlag-Ledermayr (1772–1822), an Austrian lawyer and botanist. Who collected in the Alps and the Dalmatian islands.[3] The Latin specific epithet of ramosissima is derived from ramosissimus meaning 'with many branches'.[4] Both the genus and the species were first described and published in Feddes Repert. Vol.74 on page 32 in 1967.[1]
