Doselia is a genus of hemiepiphytic lianas belonging to the Solandreae tribe of the nightshade family, Solanaceae. The species belonging to this genus are endemic to the premontane forests of the Colombian and Ecuadorian Andes.[1]
The genus was characterized from congeners based on the membranous leaves, the eglandular simple trichomes that are usually sparsely pubescent, pseudo-verticillate leaf arrangement, and the few-flowered inflorescences that are elongated, and pendulous, bearing showy flowers and conical fruits.[1]
