''Oclemena'' E.L.Greene, is a small genus of North American flowering plants in the aster tribe within the (sunflower family).〔(Greene, Edward Lee. 1903. Leaflets of Botanical Observation and Criticism 1(1): 4–5 ) in English〕〔(Tropicos, ''Oclemena'' Greene )〕 It is native to northeastern North America, found in wet or dry woodlands, and sometimes in clearings in the woods, or in acid bogs and peat.〔(Flora of North America Vol. 20 Page 78 ''Oclemena'' Greene )〕 The finely woolly stem grows in a zig-zag fashion to a height . It may be red at its base.〔 The lanceolate leaves are numerous, arranged in a spiral whorl around a single stem. They can be sharply toothed along the margin (as in ''O. acuminata'') or smooth (as in ''O. nemoralis''). The leaves contain sessile resin glands.〔 The flower heads consist of flat-topped pink to rose-violet ray florets and yellow disk florets. There are one to a few on a plant, growing on a slender peduncle. The disk flowers are abruptly expanded at the top. The scarious floral bracts consist of narrow chlorophyllous bands, tinted with purple along the midrib.〔 The stipitate ovaries are generally compressed and show on the surface minute, cylindrical glands. The fruit is a glandular achene with a double pappus of two bristled whorls.〔 The chromosome base number is x=9. The Kew database (Vascular Plant Families and Genera ) categorizes ''Oclamena'' under the genus ''Aster'' L. But taxonomically, ''Oclemena'' belongs to the North American clade of the tribe Astereae, as a basal member of one of the main branches.〔Brouillet, L., G.A. Allen, J.C. Semple, and M. Ito. 2001.
