Ochradenus is a genus of flowering plants in family Resedaceae. It contains the eight species which range from northeastern Africa through the Arabian Peninsula to Iran and India.[1]
Species
Eight species are accepted.[1]
- Ochradenus arabicus Chaudhary, Hillc. & A.G.Mill.
- Ochradenus baccatus Delile
- Ochradenus gifrii Thulin
- Ochradenus harsusiticus A.G.Mill.
- Ochradenus lakhpatensis R.M.Patel & Prajapati
- Ochradenus socotranus A.G.Mill.
- Ochradenus somalensis Baker f.
- Ochradenus spartioides (O.Schwartz) Abdallah
A molecular study published in 2007 found that Ochradenus arose from within the ranks of Reseda. Therefore, in future this genus may be abandoned, and its species transferred into Reseda.[2]
