Chromolaena borinquensis (limestone thoroughwort) is a West Indian species of flowering shrub in the sunflower family. It is native to the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, part of the United States.

The epithet borinquensis is derived from a Latinized version of the word Borikén, indigenous Taíno name for the island.
