Nothosaerva is a monotypic genus of flowering plants in family Amaranthaceae containing the single species Nothosaerva brachiata. It is native to India, Sri Lanka, Southeast Asia, and eastern Africa.[3]

This species was first described in 1852 with the name Pseudanthus.[2][4] This turned out to be an illegitimate homonym, so it was renamed Nothosaerva in 1853.[1][5][6]
