Electranthera
Electranthera is a genus of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae, native to Mexico to Honduras. The genus was first established in 1836, but under the illegitimate name Electra. A replacement name was published in 2015.
The genus was first described in 1836 by Augustin Pyramus de Candolle, using the name Electra. However, this name had already been published for a plant genus in 1813, so de Candolle's name was illegitimate. In 2014, de Candolle's genus, whose species are shrubby and pistillate-rayed, was resurrected from synonymy with typically herbaceous and sterile-rayed genus Coreopsis. However, at the time the authors did not notice that de Candolle's name was illegitimate. In 2015, the legitimate replacement name Electranthera was published.
As of March 2024[update], Plants of the World Online accepted the following species:
