Swinglea is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Rutaceae.[2] It only contains a single species, Swinglea glutinosa.[2]
It is native to the Philippines .[2]
The genus name of Swinglea is in honour of Walter Tennyson Swingle (1871–1952), an American agricultural botanist who contributed greatly to the classification and taxonomy of citrus.[3] The genus has one known synonym of Chaetospermum (M.Roem.) Swingle.[2] The Latin specific epithet of glutinosa is derived from gluten meaning glue.[4] Both the genus and the species were first described and published in J. Arnold Arbor. Vol.8 on page 131 in 1927.[2][1]
