''Remijia'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Rubiaceae. Within the family, it is a member of the subfamily Cinchonoideae and the tribe Cinchoneae. There are about 36 species in ''Remijia''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=World Checklist of Rubiaceae At )〕 They are native to Peru and Brazil. Some of the species have hollow stems that harbor ants.〔David J. Mabberley. 2008. ''Mabberley's Plant-Book'' third edition (2008). Cambridge University Press: UK. ISBN 978-0-521-82071-4〕 The bark of ''Remijia'' contains 0.5%–2% of the drug quinine. It is cheaper than the bark of ''Cinchona'', a source of quinine. Because of its intense flavor, the bark of ''Remijia'' is used for making of tonic water.〔Henry Hobhouse (2004) ''Šest rostlin, které změnily svět''. Academia, Akademie věd České republiky, Praha, ISBN 80-200-1179-X, page 59. in Czech language〕 No type species has ever been designated for ''Remijia''. In 2005, two species were transferred from ''Remijia'' to a new genus, ''Ciliosemina''. == Species == There are 45 recognised species:〔 *''Remijia amazonica'' K.Schum.
