Siderasis is a genus of monocotyledonous flowering plants in the dayflower family, first described in 1837. It consists of a single known species, Siderasis fuscata, endemic to the State of Rio de Janeiro in southeastern Brazil, though it is also naturalized on the Island of Java in Indonesia.[2][3][4]

The common name is "brown spiderwort" because of the chocolate-colored leaves.[5][6][7][8]
