Burnatia is a genus in the family Alismataceae. It includes only one currently recognized species, Burnatia enneandra. It is native to tropical and southern Africa from Senegal to Tanzania to South Africa. [2] [3] Among genera of the Alismataceae, it can be distinguished by not having a differentiated perianth (in Burnatia the petals are reduced), and being dioecious, with male and female flowers on separate individuals. Male flowers have 6 to 9 stamens and female flowers have many carpels and up to 2 staminodia. [4]
