Macranthera
Macranthera is a monotypic plant genus in the family Orobanchaceae containing only the species Macranthera flammea, commonly known as the flameflower or hummingbird-flower. It is endemic to the Coastal Plain of the south-eastern United States.
Largely restricted to the Gulf Coastal Plain of the south-eastern United States, Macranthera flammea is native to the states of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, and Mississippi, ranging as far east as Bulloch County in eastern Georgia. It occurs in and around bogs, bayheads, creeks, ecotones, and seepage slopes from sea level up to 100 m (330 ft) above sea level.
