Batis (plant)
''Batis'' (turtleweed, saltwort, beachwort, or pickleweed) is a genus of two species of flowering plants, the only genus in the family Bataceae. They are halophytic (salt tolerant) plants, native to the coastal salt marshes of warm temperate and tropical America (''B. maritima'') and tropical Australasia (''B. argillicola'').
==Morphology and taxonomy==
Both species are evergreen, low shrubs growing to 10–70 cm tall, prostrate where colonizing new mud, but once rooted, growing bushy. The leaves are small, swollen, fleshy, and narrowly club-shaped. They are bright green, but can also take on a reddish color. The flowers are small, produced in nonshowy spikes, flowering from midsummer to fall. The American species is dioecious, while the Australasian species is monoecious.
Some botanists divide ''B. maritima'' into five species, with ''B. californica'', ''B. fruticosa'', ''B. spinosa'' and ''B. vermiculatus'' split off, but this interpretation is not widely followed.
