Stenaria Sanchezii
''Stenaria'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family (biology), family Rubiaceae. It is a small genus, consisting of around six species native to the United States, Mexico, and The Bahamas. All species of ''Stenaria'' are restricted to Mexico and the southwestern United States, except for the wide-ranging ''Stenaria nigricans'' which extends northward and eastward. ''Stenaria'' are herbaceous perennials or low shrubs. Flowers are produced in cymes, and can be white, purple, or pink. ''Stenaria'' can be morphologically distinguished from the similar genus ''Hedyotis'' by its non-crateriform seeds. ''Stenaria'' was first recognized as a genus in 2001. It comprises species formerly classified as ''Hedyotis'' or ''Houstonia (plant), Houstonia''.
