Marina (plant)

Marina is a genus in the legume family, Fabaceae. It includes 40 species native to southern North America, ranging from California and New Mexico through Mexico and Central America to Costa Rica.[1] They are known as the false prairie clovers. Unlike the related prairie clovers (genus Dalea), which bear two ovules per fruit (with typically only one fully maturing to become a viable seed), false prairie clovers bear only one ovule per fruit.
