Retama rhodorhizoides is a species or subspecies of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae, [2] endemic to the Canary Islands. [3]
Retama rhodorhizoides was first described by Philip Barker-Webb and Sabin Berthelot in a work dated to 1836–1850 that was initially published in parts. An illustration of the species, first published in 1837, was labelled Genista rhodorhizoides. [1] [4] When the authors published a Latin description in 1842, they transferred the species to Retama . [1] [5]
The species is included in Retama monosperma by some sources, [6] and, according to the African Plants Database, has been incorrectly identified as Retama raetam by others. [7] Retama rhodorhizoides is restricted to the Canary Islands. [3] [2]
Retama is a genus of flowering bushes in the legume family, Fabaceae. It belongs to the broom tribe, Genisteae. Retama broom bushes are found natively in North Africa, the Levant and some parts of southern Europe. Retama raetam and Retama monosperma have white flowers, while Retama sphaerocarpa has yellow flowers. It remains an open question in taxonomy whether the members of the genus Retama should be incorporated into the genus Genista.
