Suchtelenia calycina is a species of flowering plant in the family Boraginaceae. It is an annual native to Iran, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan.[1]
The genus name of Suchtelenia is in honour of Paul van Suchtelen (1788–1833), a Dutch-born Russian military officer.[2] The Latin specific epithet of calycina is derived from the Greek calycinus, meaning "like a calyx" or "with a prominent calyx".[3] It was first described and published in Pl. Vasc. Gen. Vol.1 on page 188 in 1839.[1] The species was published in Prodr. Vol.10 on page 163 in 1846.[1]
