National Plant Data Team, Greensboro, NC 27401-4901 USA. The genus contains about 18 species referred to as "pinweeds" primarily in eastern North America. Most are low-growing herbs with narrow leaves and many small flowers that resemble pinheads. Linnaeus named the genus ''Lechea'' for Swedish botanist Johan Leche (1704–1764), who taught in Finland and is regarded as the father of Finnish meteorology and space research, based on his documentation of the northern lights and early measurements of air temperature in collaboration with Anders Celsius. Species 18 species are accepted.

	Pehr Kalm Pehr Kalm (6 March 1716 – 16 November 1779), also known as Peter Kalm, was a Swedish-Finnish List of explorers, explorer, botany, botanist, natural history, naturalist, and Agricultural economics, agricultural economist. He was one of the most important Apostles of Linnaeus, apostles of Carl Linnaeus. In 1747, he was commissioned by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences to travel to the North American colonies in order to bring back seeds and plants that might be useful to agriculture. Among his many scientific accomplishments, Kalm can be credited with the first description of Niagara Falls written by a trained scientist. In addition, he published the first scientific paper on the North American 17-year periodical cicada, ''Magicicada septendecim.'' Kalm wrote an account of his travels that was translated into numerous European languages; a 20th-century translation remains in print in English as ''Peter Kalm's Travels in North America: The English Version of 1770,'' translated ...

	Lechea Torreyi ''Lechea torreyi'', commonly called sandhill pinweed, is a species of perennial flowering plant native to the U.S. southeast coastal plain in the states of Florida, Alabama, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia. It could also be present in two other areas: in Virginia and in Belize as a disjunct population. Habitat It occurs in sandy, fire-dependent pine habitats of the southeast including pine flatwoods, longleaf pine sandhill, and pine barrens. Conservation Due to lack of sufficient data, there has been trouble fully assessing the level of threat faced by this species. However, it seems to have a rather wide range and adaptable habitat preferences which lend to its resilience. Possible threats include habitat loss from development for real estate and agriculture, infrastructure and its maintenance, fire suppression, and invasive species An invasive species is an introduced species that harms its new environment.
