Lebronnecia is a monotypic genus with one species, Lebronnecia kokioides, a very rare shrub in the mallow family known from only a few hundred specimens in the Marquesas Islands of French Polynesia. It is now cultivated in Hawaii, and general care is based on what is known about related Malvaceae shrubs.
Lebronnecia is a monotypic genus of flowering plants in the family Malvaceae. The sole species is Lebronnecia kokioides, a very rare flowering shrub.
Only a few hundred specimens are known to exist. The plant was first described in 1966, after a single tree with a few seedlings was discovered on Tahuata, an island in the Marquesas group of French Polynesia that had been severely deforested by livestock: cattle, goats, horses, and pigs.
