Spatalla

Spatalla is a genus containing 20 species of flowering plants, commonly known as "spoons", in the family Proteaceae.

The genus is endemic to the Cape Floristic Region of South Africa where it is associated with fynbos habitats.

The species are all small shrubs.

The name is derived from the Greek, meaning “wantonness”, alluding to the plants’ unusually large pollen-presenters.
