Espadaea is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Solanaceae. The only species is Espadaea amoena.[1]
It is native to Cuba.[1]
The genus name is in honour of Juan José Díaz de Espada (1757–1832), a Spanish bishop in Havana in Cuba,[2] and the Latin epithet of amoena means "beautiful" or "pleasing".[3] It was first described and published in R.de la Sagra, Hist. Fis. Cuba, Bot. Vol.11 on page 148 in 1850.[1]
