Dintera
Dintera is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Plantaginaceae. It contains just one species, Dintera pterocaulis Stapf, which comes from Namibia.
The genus name of Dintera is in honour of Kurt Dinter (1868–1945), a German botanist and explorer in South West Africa. The Latin specific epithet of pterocaulis refers to petro meaning rock or stone and 'caulis' (a Greek word) meaning stem or stalk.
