Dicerandra
''Dicerandra'' is a genus of flowering plants in the mint family. ''Dicerandra'' comprises 11 species: six perennial and five annual species. The perennials have narrow ranges in Central Florida with small population sizes and only occur on ancient dune ridges along the Lake Wales Ridge or the Atlantic coastal ridge; the annual species occur more broadly on sandhill habitats to the north. The perennials’ habitat has been severely fragmented due to human development over the past century. As a result, all perennial species except one are listed as federally endangered. Annual species of the clade have large ranges when compared to perennial members, with distributions of annuals ranging for hundreds of miles from the Panhandle of Florida to southeastern Georgia, with the exception of ''Dicerandra radfordiana'' which is endemic to two sites along the Altamaha river. The genus is characterized by hornlike spurs on their anthers.Huck, R. B. (2008)''Dicerandra modesta'' (Lamiaceae): R ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Dicerandra Thinicola
''Dicerandra thinicola'', known as Titusville mint, is a species of ''Dicerandra'' (mint family) native to the Atlantic coastal ridge along the Central Florida coast. It is restricted to a 50-km range, and all known natural populations of ''D. thinicola'' are located in Brevard County, Florida, near the city of Titusville. Most populations are located on private lands with conservation easements.
