Polyclita

Polyclita is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Ericaceae.

[2] It only contains one known species, Polyclita turbinata (Kuntze) A.C.Sm.

[1] The genus name of Polyclita is in honour of Polykleitos (c. 480 BC – end of the 5th century BC), a Greek sculptor of bronzes (copies of which probably persist as Roman marble statues).

[3] The Latin specific epithet of turbinata means shaped like a top, from turbineus.

[4] Both the genus and the species were first described and published in Bull.
