Bridelia is a plant genus of the family Phyllanthaceae first described as a genus in 1806.[3][4][5] It is widespread across Africa, Australia, southern Asia, and various islands of the Indian and Pacific Oceans.[2][6][7]
Bridelia species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including Endoclita malabaricus.
The genus Bridelia was named in the honor of Samuel Elisée Bridel-Brideri by the German botanist Carl Ludwig Willdenow.[3]
