[2] The genus is named for Greek poet Nicander of Colophon, who wrote about plants [3] – notably in his poem Alexipharmaca, which treats of poisons and their antidotes.

- Nicandra john-tyleriana S.Leiva & Pereyra
- Nicandra physalodes (L.) Gaertn.
- Nicandra yacheriana S.Leiva
From 1763 until 2007, when Nicandra john-tyleriana was described, [4] the only species in the genus was Nicandra physalodes. A third species, Nicandra yacheriana, was described in 2010. [5]
