Libinhania is a genus of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae, native to Somalia and Socotra. [2] The genus was established in 2017, [1] as a result of a molecular phylogenetic study, which showed that a number of species endemic to Socotra, some of which had been placed in the genus Helichrysum , formed a clade that did not belong in that genus. [3]
