Riedeliella is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae. It includes three species of scandent shrubs native to Paraguay and eastern and west-central Brazil. They grow in seasonally-dry tropical forest, cerrado (savanna and open woodland), and caatinga (thorn shrubland).[1] The genus belongs to the subfamily Faboideae, and was recently assigned to the informal monophyletic Pterocarpus clade within the Dalbergieae.[2][3]
