Kendrickia is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Melastomataceae. It only contains one species, Kendrickia walkeri.[1]
Its native range is India and Sri Lanka.[1]
The genus name of Kendrickia is in honour of George Henry Kendrick Thwaites (1811–1882), an English botanist and entomologist.[2] Both genus and species were first described and published in 1867.[3]
