The genus "Bowenia", includes two living and two fossil species of cycads in the family Stangeriaceae, and is entirely restricted to Australia. The two living species occur in Queensland, where they grow in the warm, wet, tropical rainforests, on protected slopes and near streams, primarily in the lowlands.

The fossil species "Bowenia eocenica" is known from deposits in a coal mine in Victoria, Australia, and "B. papillosa" is known from deposits in New South Wales. Both fossils are of Eocene age, and consist of leaflet fragments.
