Ophrypetalum

Ophrypetalum is a genus of plant in the family Annonaceae. It is native to Kenya and Tanzania. It contains a single species, Ophrypetalum odoratum. Ludwig Diels, the German botanist who first formally described the species, named it after the perfumed odor ("odōrātus", in Latin) of its flowers. Bioactive molecules isolated from its roots and leaves have been reported to have antifungal activity in tests with "Candida albicans".
