| Leptodactylon |  |

| Leptodactylon is included on its own page because many still recognize it as a distinct genus. It consists of small perennials that are woody at the base, with palmately (rarely pinnately-) compound leaves, and calyces with membranes wider than the green lobes. The genus has long been associated with Linanthus (sensu lato); yet, despite being long-recognized as a distinct genus, no matter how you look at it Leptodactylon is nested within Linanthus. | |||||||
