Scutellaria
''Scutellaria'' is a genus of flowering plants in the mint family, Lamiaceae. They are known commonly as skullcaps. The generic name is derived from the Latin ''scutella'', meaning "a small dish, tray or platter",〔(''Scutellaria parvula'' var. ''missouriensis''. ) Robert W. Freckmann Herbarium. University of Wisconsin, Stevens Point.〕 or "little dish", referring to the shape of the calyx.〔 The common name alludes to the resemblance of the same structure to "miniature medieval helmets".〔 The genus has a subcosmopolitan distribution,〔Ulloa, C. U. and P. M. Jørgensen. (''Scutellaria''. ) ''Árboles y arbustos de los Andes del Ecuador''. eFloras.〕 with species occurring nearly worldwide, mainly in temperate regions.〔(''Scutellaria''. ) The Jepson eFlora 2013.〕 ==Description== Most are annual or perennial herbaceous plants from tall, but a few are subshrubs; some are aquatic. They have four-angled stems and opposite leaves. The flowers have upper and lower lips. The genus is most easily recognized by the typical shield on the calyx that has also prompted its common name.
