Vernonanthura is a genus of Neotropical plants in the tribe Vernonieae[2] within the family Asteraceae.[1][3]
The genus name of Vernonanthura is in honour of William Vernon (1666/67 - ca.1711), who was an English plant collector, (bryologist) and entomologist from Cambridge University, who collected in Maryland, USA in 1698. As well as the complex ending derived from 'anthera' (anther) and 'oura' (tail), referring to the frequently tailed anther base of the plant.[4][5]
