Cleomella
''Cleomella'' is a small genus of about ten species of flowering plants. Like their relatives, the cleomes, plants of this genus have traditionally been included in the caper family Capparaceae but have recently been moved into a new family, Cleomaceae. ''Cleomella'' are annual wildflowers native to the dry and desert regions of western North America. They are similar to cleomes in appearance. They are erect and branching with leaves divided into three leaflets and inflorescences of yellow flowers with long stamen The stamen (plural ''stamina'' or ''stamens'') is the pollen-producing reproductive organ of a flower.

''Cleomella'' species are known commonly as stinkweeds or simply cleomellas.

Cleomella Obtusifolia
''Cleomella obtusifolia'' is a species of flowering plant in the cleome family known by the common name Mojave stinkweed. It is native to the Mojave Desert and adjacent hills, where it grows in alkaline soils in the desert scrub. It is an annual herb producing a rough, hairy stem up to 90 centimeters long. The branching stem grows erect when new and then the branches droop to the ground with age, forming a bushy clump or mat. Each leaf is made up of three fleshy oval leaflets. Flowers appear in dense racemes on older stems and solitary in leaf axils on new stems. Each flower has generally four hairy green sepals and four yellow petals grouped together on one side of the involucre.

Cleomella Angustifolia
''Cleomella angustifolia'', the narrowleaf rhombopod, is a plant species native to the south-central United States. It grows in roadsides, grasslands, stream banks, and pond shores in Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska and Colorado. ''Cleomella angustifolia'' is an herb up to 200 cm tall. Leaves are pinnately compound with 3-8 pairs of leaflets. Flowers are yellow-orange, up to 15 mm across. Capsules are rhomboidal Traditionally, in two-dimensional geometry, a rhomboid is a parallelogram in which adjacent sides are of unequal lengths and angles are non-right angled. A parallelogram with sides of equal length (equilateral) is a rhombus but not a rhomboid. ..., up to 12 mm across.Correll, D. S. & M. C. Johnston. 1970.

Cleomella Longipes
''Cleomella longipes'', the Chiricahua Mountain stinkweed, is a plant species native to northern Mexico and to the southwestern United States.

It is found on saline or alkaline flats at elevations of 500–1000 m. ''Cleomella longipes'' is a sparsely-branched annual herb up to 80 cm tall. Leaves are narrowly elliptic, up to 5 cm long. Flowers are borne in racemes at the top of the plant and on the tips of branches. Sepals are green, petals Petals are modified leaves that surround the reproductive parts of flowers.

Cleomaceae
The Cleomaceae are a small family of flowering plants in the order Brassicales, comprising about 300 species in 10 genera, or about 150 species in 17 genera.Cleomaceae, Zhang Mingli (张明理)1; Gordon C. Tucker2, Harvard.edu/ref> These genera were previously included in the family Capparaceae, but were raised to a distinct family when DNA evidence suggested the genera included in it are more closely related to the Brassicaceae than they are to the Capparaceae. The APG II system allows for Cleomaceae to be included in Brassicaceae.Stevens, P. F. (2001 onwards) Angiosperm Phylogeny WebsiteBrassicales Taxonomy In 1994, a group of scientists including Walter Stephen Judd suggested to merge the Capparaceae (which at that time included the Cleomaceae) with the Brassicaceae. Early DNA-analysis showed that the Capparaceae - as defined at that moment - were paraphyletic, and others suggested to assign the genera closest to the Brassicaceae to the Cleomaceae.
