Abstract
The taxonomic status of the five species that comprise Khadia N.E.Br. is clarified on the basis of macro-and micromorphology. Distribution d ata, descriptions and a taxonomic key to the species are provided. In Khadia we recognise the following species: K. acutipetala (N.E.Br.) N. E.Br., K. alticola Chesselet & H.E.K.Hartmann, K. beswickii (L. Bolus) N.E.Br., K. borealis L. Bolus and K. carolinensis (L. Bolus) N.E.Br.
