Brickellia glomerata is a Mexican species of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. It is found in central and southwestern Mexico, in the states of México, Morelos, Guerrero, and Oaxaca.[2]

Brickellia glomerata produces several flower heads with disc florets but no ray florets. The heads are clumped together in groups called "glomerules," hence the scientific name of the species.[3]
