Tetroncium
Genus of flowering plants
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tetroncium is a genus of plants in the Juncaginaceae described as a genus in 1808.[2][3] It contains only one known species, Tetroncium magellanicum, known from a few sub-Antarctic islands: Tierra Del Fuego (Chile and Argentina), Falkland Islands, and Gough Island.[1][4][5][6] The plant got the name magellanicum because the original description was describing the sample found near the Strait of Magellan.[7]
