Antopetitia is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae.
It contains a single species, Antopetitia abyssinica, an herbaceous annual native to sub-Saharan Africa, ranging from Nigeria to Eritrea and Mozambique.
[3] Members within the genus bear odd-pinnately compound leaves with five to eleven leaflets.
Flowers each have a gamosepalous but toothed calyx and a corolla of petals each divided into a claw and limb of equal or near-equal length.
Each fruit consists of two to five one-seeded segments, each of which dehisce into two valves upon maturity.
