Heiseria is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Asteraceae.[1]
It is native to Peru.[1]
Botanists Edward E. Schilling and José Luis Panero in 2002 and 2011, studied the subtribe Helianthinae based on molecular sequences of nuclear ITS, ETS, and cpDNA, coming to a conclusion that that the genus Viguiera Kunth, did not constitute a monophyletic group. Among their conclusions they proposed to reclassify the genus, dividing and relocating its species in at least eleven genera: Aldama La Llave, Bahiopsis Kellogg, Calanticaria (B.L. Rob. & Greenm.) E.E. Schill. & Panero, Davilanthus E.E. Schill. & Panero, Dendroviguiera E.E. Schill. & Panero, Gonzalezia, Heliomeris Nutt., Heiseria E.E. Schill. & Panero, Hymenostephium Benth., Sidneya E.E. Schill. & Panero, and Viguiera Kunth.[2][3]
The genus name of Heiseria is in honour of Charles Bixler Heiser (1920–2010), an American professor of botany.[4] It was first described and published in Bot. J. Linn. Soc. Vol.167 on page 327 in 2011.[1]
