During updating the plant holding database of the botanical garden, Bangladesh Agricultural University, the authors identified three species of the family Commelinaceae namely, Callisia fragrans (Lindl.) Woodson, Murdannia gigantea (Vahl) G.Brückn., and Tradescantia sillamontana Matuda as new records to the flora of Bangladesh. This paper provides a comprehensive description and colour photographs of these species from Bangladesh.
