Leonotis Ocymifolia
''Leonotis ocymifolia'', occasionally referred to as the minaret flower, is a flowering plant of the mint family, Lamiaceae. The plant is used in Ethiopian folk medicine (link misleading) and found in Eastern Africa spanning from Sudan to South Africa.''Leonotis'' In: Index Nominum Genericorum. In: Regnum Vegetabile The International Association for Plant Taxonomy (IAPT) is an organization established to promote an understanding of plant biodiversity, facilitate international communication of research between botanists, and oversee matters of uniformity and .... The plant is reasonably drought-resistant and wind tolerant. Unlike the similar ''Leonotus leonuris,'' in the ''ocymifolia,'' the tubular flowers are bolder and larger.

Leonotis Nepetifolia
''Leonotis nepetifolia'', (also known as klip dagga, Christmas candlestick, or lion's ear), is a species of plant in the genus ''Leonotis'' and the family Lamiaceae (mint). It is native to tropical Africa and southern India. It can also be found growing abundantly in much of Latin America, the West Indies, and the Southeastern United States. It grows to a height of and has whorls of striking lipped flowers, that are most commonly orange, but can vary to red, white, and purple. It has drooping dark green, very soft serrated leaves that can grow up to wide. Sunbirds and ants are attracted to the flowers. It has been found growing on road sides, rubbish heaps or waste land. ''L. nepetifolia'' is considered an invasive plant in Australia, Florida, and Hawaii, though its tendency to grow in disturbed areas led researchers in Hawaii to conclude it's not likely to be an ecological threat. ;Varieties #''Leonotis nepetifolia'' var.

Prodromus Florae Novae Hollandiae Et Insulae Van Diemen
''Prodromus Florae Novae Hollandiae et Insulae Van Diemen'' (Prodromus of the Flora of New Holland and Van Diemen's Land) is a flora of Australia written by botanist Robert Brown and published in 1810. Often referred to as ''Prodromus Flora Novae Hollandiae'', or by its standard botanical abbreviation ''Prodr. Fl. Nov. Holland.'', it was the first attempt at a survey of the Australian flora. It described over 2040 species, over half of which were published for the first time. Brown's ''Prodromus'' was originally published as Volume One, and following the ''Praemonenda'' (Preface), page numbering commences on page 145. Sales of the ''Prodromus'' were so poor, however, that Brown withdrew it from sale. Due to the commercial failure of the first volume, pages 1 to 144 were never issued, and Brown never produced the additional volumes that he had planned. In 1813, a book of illustrations for the ''Prodromus'' was published separately by Ferdinand Bauer under the title ''Ferdinandi Ba ...

Paraphyletic
In taxonomy (general), taxonomy, a group is paraphyletic if it consists of the group's most recent common ancestor, last common ancestor and most of its descendants, excluding a few Monophyly, monophyletic subgroups. The group is said to be paraphyletic ''with respect to'' the excluded subgroups. In contrast, a monophyletic group (a clade) includes a common ancestor and ''all'' of its descendants. The terms are commonly used in phylogenetics (a subfield of biology) and in the tree model of historical linguistics. Paraphyletic groups are identified by a combination of Synapomorphy and apomorphy, synapomorphies and symplesiomorphy, symplesiomorphies. If many subgroups are missing from the named group, it is said to be polyparaphyletic. The term was coined by Willi Hennig to apply to well-known taxa like Reptilia (reptiles) which, as commonly named and traditionally defined, is paraphyletic with respect to mammals and birds. Reptilia contains the last common ancestor of reptiles a ...

Subfamily
In biological classification, a subfamily (Latin: ', plural ') is an auxiliary (intermediate) taxonomic rank, next below family but more inclusive than genus. Standard nomenclature rules end subfamily botanical names with "-oideae", and zoological names with "-inae". See also * International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants * International Code of Zoological Nomenclature * Rank (botany) * Rank (zoology) In biological classification, taxonomic rank is the relative level of a group of organisms (a taxon) in an ancestral or hereditary hierarchy. A common system consists of species, genus, family, order, class, phylum, kingdom, domain. While ... Sources {{biology-stub ...
