Castenedia is a monotypic, genus of flowering plants in the daisy family, Asteraceae.[1] It contains a single species, Castenedia santamartensis. It is native to Colombia.[2]
Both the genus and the species were circumscribed by Robert Merrill King and Harold Ernest Robinson in Phytologia vol.39 on page 58 in 1978.[2]
The genus name of Castenedia is in honour of Rafael Romero Castañeda (1910–1973), who was a Colombian botanist and plant collector.[3]
