Otoglyphis is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. It includes two species of annual herbs native to mainly non-salty steppes and deserts in North Africa and the Arabian Peninsula.[1]
The genus synonym Aaronsohnia was named in 1927 after the agronomist Aaron Aaronsohn by the botanists Otto Warburg (1859–1938) and Alexander Eig (1894–1938).
