Neoglaziovia is a genus of the botanical family Bromeliaceae, subfamily Bromelioideae.
The genus is named in honor of Auguste François Marie Glaziou, French landscape designer and bromeliad collector (1833-1906).
It has three known species, all endemic to the Atlantic Forest biome (Mata Atlantica Brasileira) in southeast Brazil.
Neoglaziovia variegata has been, and continues to be, an important part of localized markets in South America — where its fibers are woven into fabric, netting, and rope.
