Gnidia Hirsuta
''Gnidia'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Thymelaeaceae. It is distributed in tropical and southern Africa and Madagascar; more than half of all the species are endemic to South Africa.Rogers, Z. S. (2006)A new species of Malagasy ''Gnidia'' and the lectotypification of ''Octolepis decalepis'' (Thymelaeaceae).''Adansonia, sér.'' 3(28), 155-60. ''Gnidia'' was named for Knidos, an Ancient Greek city located in modern-day Turkey.Hyde, M. A., et al''Gnidia''.Flora of Zimbabwe. 2013. These are perennial herbs and shrubs, sometimes with rhizomes. Most species have alternately arranged leaves, and a few have opposite leaves. The leaves are undivided and unlobed. The inflorescence is a head of a few to many flowers. The calyx is cylindrical and the colored lobes may alternate with the petals; some species lack petals. Many species are similar in appearance and difficult to tell apart. Molecular analyses have provided evidence that the genus is polyphyletic, made up of fou ...
