|}}Kickxia is a genus of plants in the Plantaginaceae. It includes several species of plants known commonly as cancerworts or fluellins. They are mostly native to Europe, but two species, K. elatine and K. spuria are well-known elsewhere as invasive weeds.
Taxonomy
The genus Kickxia was named after the Belgian botanist Jean Kickx.[1] Some species formerly placed in this genus have been transferred to Nanorrhinum.[3]
