Boopis
Boopis is a genus of flowering plants in the family Calyceraceae, which includes eight species native to Chile and western Argentina.
The genus has been subject to several major revisions. In 2016 the genus as it was then circumscribed was found to be highly polyphyletic, and several species were moved to other genera. In 2024 Pozner et al. placed Boopis anthemoides in the new monotypic genus Xiphodesma, and determined that Boopis was the correct name for the "pilose group" of Calyceraceae species which Pozner et al. had previously placed in Leucocera.
