Lecokia is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Apiaceae.[2] It just contains one species, Lecokia cretica (Lam.) DC. [1]

It is native to Cyprus, the East Aegean Islands, Iran, Crete, Lebanon, Palestine, South Caucasus (of Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaijan), Syria, and Turkey.[1]

The genus name of Lecokia is in honour of Henri Lecoq (1802–1871), a French botanist.[3] The genus has 2 known synonyms of Apolgusa Raf. and Conilaria Raf.[2]

The Latin specific epithet of cretica means "coming from Crete, where the plant was found.[4] Both the genus and the species were first described and published in Coll. Mém. Vol.5 on page 67 in 1829.[1]
