Blepharis Calcitrapa
''Blepharis'' is a genus of plant in family Acanthaceae. It contains around 128 species found in seasonally dry to arid habitats from Africa through Arabia to Southeast Asia. In section ''Acanthodium'', there are 13–15 species that use the carbon fixation pathway. Phylogenetic analysis suggests that this pathway evolved up to three times independently in the genus over the last five million years. The genus is named after the Greek word βλεφαριϛ, which means eyelash.

Antoine Laurent De Jussieu
Antoine Laurent de Jussieu (; 12 April 1748 – 17 September 1836) was a French botanist, notable as the first to publish a natural classification of flowering plants; much of his system remains in use today. His classification was based on an extended unpublished work by his uncle, the botanist Bernard de Jussieu. Life Jussieu was born in Lyon, France, in 1748, as one of 10 children, to Christophle de Jussieu, an amateur botanist. His father's three younger brothers were also botanists. He went to Paris in 1765 to be with his uncle Bernard de Jussieu, Bernard and to study medicine, graduating with a doctorate in 1770, with a thesis on animal and vegetable physiology. His uncle introduced him to the Jardin du Roi, where he was appointed as a botany List of academic ranks, Demonstrator and deputy to L. G. Le Monnier, professor of botany there in 1770. Le Monnier had succeeded Antoine-Laurent's uncle Antoine in 1759. Lectures by eminent botanists, including the Jusssieu dynasty ...

Blepharis Dhofarensis
''Blepharis dhofarensis'' is a species of plant in the family Acanthaceae. It is a shrub that grows to around 5m tall and is found in Oman and Yemen. ''Blepharis dhofarensis'' grows on wet escarpment woodlands and it prefers dense thickets on steep slopes. It is threatened by habitat loss. Recent molecular work has placed it in the genus '' Acanthus'' instead of ''Blepharis''. Uses ''Blepharis dhofarensis'' seeds in the prickly fruit heads were regarded as the very best fodder for camels by herders, especially milch camels. The leaves were also used as fodder. The fruits are mostly out of reach of the herds of goats, but herders would collect heads and extract the seeds to feed to sick or weak goats. The long slim branches provided spear shafts and could also be used as kohl Kohl may refer to: *Kohl (cosmetics), an ancient eye cosmetic *Kohl (surname), including a list of people with the surname *Kohl's Kohl's Corporation (Kohl's is stylized in all caps) is an American d ...
