Brachyglottis is a genus of flowering plant in the Asteraceae family; a genus which has existed since November 29, 1775[2][3] when Johann Reinhold Forster & Georg Forster created the genus with this name from the Greek words brachus meaning short[4] and glottis meaning "the vocal apparatus of the larynx"[5] or tongue[6] referring to the size of the ray florets.[7]
