Dielsia is a genus of flowering plant, described in 1904, in the family Restionaceae.[2][3] There is only one known species, Dielsia stenostachya, endemic to Western Australia.[1]

Species in homonymic genus[1]

In 1929, Kudô used the name Dielsia in reference to a plant in the Lamiaceae, thus creating an illegitimate homonym.[4] He also created one species in his genus, i.e.

  • Dielsia oreophila (Diels) Kudô, syn of Isodon oreophilus (Diels) A.J.Paton & Ryding
