Jalantzia is a genus of flowering plants in the aster tribe Astereae within the sunflower family Asteraceae. It was previously known as VernoniopsisHumbert, [2] an illegitimate name. [1] Its species are native to Madagascar.
The genus name Vernoniopsis was first used by Per Karl Hjalmar Dusén in 1921. [3] Dusén described one species, Vernoniopsis crassipes, from Brazil, which has since been synonymized with Vernonia plantaginifolia, as of May 2024 [update] treated as either Pycnocephalum plantaginifolium or Chresta plantaginifolia . Dusén's Vernoniopsis is placed in tribe Vernonieae. [4] In 1955, Jean-Henri Humbert used the same name for a new genus, [5] in which he placed a species from Madagascar originally described as Vernonia caudata. [6] Humbert's genus name, being a later homonym, is illegitimate. [5] In 2024, the replacement name Jalantzia was published for VernoniopsisHumbert. [1] The genus is placed in the tribe Astereae. [4]
As of May 2024 [update] , two species are accepted, both native to Madagascar. [4]

Salvia indica is a species of herbaceous perennial plant belonging to the family Lamiaceae. It is native to a wide region of Western Asia that includes Israel, Iraq, Iran and Turkey. It was first described by the taxonomist Carl Linnaeus in 1753. It is unknown why he gave it the specific epithet indica, since the plant is not from India. While Salvia indica is classified as a herbaceous perennial, in cultivation individual plants often live no longer than two years.
Dracaena aurea, the golden hala pepe, is a species of flowering plant that is endemic to the island of Kauaʻi in Hawaii. It inhabits coastal mesic and mixed mesic forests at elevations of 120–1,070 m (390–3,510 ft). It is a small evergreen tree, usually 4.6–7.6 m (15–25 ft) tall, but sometimes reaches 12 m (39 ft). The gray, straight trunk does not have bark and is 0.3–0.9 m (0.98–2.95 ft) in diameter. The sword-shaped leaves are 20–51 cm (7.9–20.1 in) long and 1–3 cm (0.39–1.18 in) wide.
Strelitzia caudata, commonly known as the mountain strelitzia or wild banana, is a species of banana-like Strelitzia from Africa from the Chimanimani Mountains of Zimbabwe south to Mozambique, the Northern Provinces of South Africa and Eswatini (Swaziland). It was first described in 1946 by Robert Allen Dyer in Flowering Plants of Africa, Volume 25, Plate 997. The specific epithet caudata means "having a tail"; this refers to an appendage of a sepal, which occurs only in this species. It is one of three large banana-like Strelitzia species, all of which are native to southern Africa, the other two being S. alba and S. nicolai.

Euphronia is a genus of three species of shrubs native to northern South America and is the only genus in the family Euphroniaceae.

Based on molecular data from the rbcL gene, it is sister to the Chrysobalanaceae.
