Grubbiais agenusofflowering plants.[2]It is the sole genus in thefamilyGrubbiaceae.[3]The genus has threespecies,allendemicto theCape Floristic Regionof South Africa.[4]They areshrubsthat grow to 1.5 m (4.9 ft) tall, with tinyflowersand slender, leatheryleaves.[5]Thefruitis asyncarp.
GrubbiawasnamedbyPeter Jonas Bergiusin 1767 in a SwedishjournalentitledKongliga Vetenskaps Academiens Handlingar.[6]Thegeneric namehonors the SwedishbotanistMichael Grubb.[7]
Grubbiawas revised bySherwin Carlquistin 1977.[8]Grubbia gracilis,Grubbia hirsuta,andGrubbia pinifoliahad all been recognized, at least by some authors, at speciesrank,but Carlquist treated them assubspeciesorvarietiesofGrubbia rosmarinifolia.Some authors had recognized a second genus,Strobilocarpus,in the family Grubbiaceae, but Carlquist assigned its two species,Strobilocarpus rourkeiandStrobilocarpus tomentosatoGrubbia.
Molecular phylogeneticstudieshave shown thatGrubbiaissistertoCurtisia,another genus from South Africa.[9]It has been suggested thatGrubbiaandCurtisiamight be combined into a single family.[10]This was not followed by theAngiosperm Phylogeny Groupin theAPG III systemof 2009.
