110; see text Didymocarpus[2][3] is a genus of flowering plants in the family Gesneriaceae and typical of the tribe Didymocarpeae.

[4] The members of the genus are typically small perennial, deciduous herbs with annual flowering stems.

Floral color can be hues of reds, oranges, yellows, and violet often with stripes on the lobes.

Due to lack of a clear definition of the generic boundaries, more than 180 species and 450 names were affiliated to this genus over time.

[5] These included many morphologically distinct species from Madagascar, Western Ghats of India and Southeast Asia.
