Seetzenia lanata

Synonyms: Seetzenia africana R.Br., Zygophyllum lanatum Willd.

Seetzenia has been associated with Fagonia, chiefly on account of its trifoliolate leaves. Currently, molecular data (Sheahan & Chase 1996) indicate that Seetzenia is the only representative of a subfamily within Zygophyllaceae, that of Seetzenioideae.
