Warnockia is a genus from the family Lamiaceae, first described in 1996. It contains only one known species, Warnockia scutellarioides, the prairie brazosmint, native to the south-central United States (Texas and Oklahoma) and northern Mexico (Coahuila).[1][2]
Etymology
The genus name honors Barton Warnock, a 20th-century Texan botanist.
The specific epithet scutellarioides (suffixed with -oides) means "Scutellaria-like", referring to a resemblance to another genus in the Lamiaceae.[3]
It was also called the prairie brazoria, as it was formerly placed in the genus Brazoria.[3]
