Schizoglossum
Schizoglossum is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Apocynaceae. It is characterized by a distinctive mechanism in which nectar is delivered onto the corolla through channels in the interstaminal corona. In some species, the interstaminal corona may function primarily as the outer boundary of the primary nectary just below the entrance to the guide rail.
Its native range is Southern Tropical and Southern Africa.
