Brandzeia is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae.
It has only one species, Brandzeia filicifolia, a tree native to northern and western Madagascar.
[2] Brandzeia filicifolia is a large deciduous tree, growing to 20 to 25 meters tall.
It grows in deciduous woodland, chiefly on limestone substrates including tsingy, and also on sand, basalt, and gneiss and in seasonally-inundated areas, from sea level up to 350 meters elevation.
The species' dry forest and woodland habitat is subject to habitat loss and fragmentation from forest clearance and over-exploitation of wood, and livestock grazing.
