Abelia is a formerly recognized genus that contained about 30 species and hybrids, placed in the honeysuckle family, Caprifoliaceae. Molecular phylogenetic studies showed that the genus was not monophyletic, and in 2013, Maarten Christenhusz proposed the merger of Abelia into Linnaea, along with some other genera. Abelia section Zabelia was raised to the genus Zabelia.

The Abelia church of the Trinity is a 13th-century Georgian Orthodox church, located in the Tetri Tsqaro Municipality in Georgia's south-central region of Kvemo Kartli. A simple single-nave design, it is situated at the outskirts of the modern-day village of Abeliani, formerly known as Abelia. A reference to the diarchy in Georgia under the Mongol rule in an inscription on the church's southern wall makes it possible to date the construction to the period of 1250–1259. The church is inscribed on the list of the Immovable Cultural Monuments of National Significance of Georgia.
