Oldenlandia Linnaeus. Common name: Oldenlandia.
A genus of about 100 species, pantropical, but the circumscription is controversial and very uncertain. Wikström et al. (2013), Guo et al. (2013), and Kårehed et al. (2008) presage the split-up of Oldenlandia into monophyletic units. O. uniflora (and possibly O. boscii) will probably end up in Edrastima Rafinesque and O. salzmannii returned to the genus in which it was first described, as Anotis salzmannii A.P. de Candolle.
