Hoverdenia is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Acanthaceae. [1] It only contains one species, Hoverdenia speciosa. [2]
It is native to Veracruz and northeastern Mexico. [2]
The genus name of Hoverdenia is in honour of Adrian Josef Graf von Hoverden-Plencken (1798–1875), a Silesian administrator and collector. He was also the president of the former museum in Wrocław. [3] The Latin specific epithet of speciosa refers to speciosus meaning showy. [4] Both genus and species were first described and published in 1847. [5]
