Parentucellia is a small genus of flowering plants in the family Orobanchaceae containing about four species. They are known generally as glandweeds. The genus was named for Pope Nicholas V, whose surname was Parentucelli.^[3]

Phylogeny[edit]

The phylogeny of the genera of Rhinantheae has been explored using molecular characters.^[4]^[5] Parentucellia belongs to the core Rhinantheae. It is closely related to the genus Bellardia, and then to Odontites, Tozzia and Hedbergia. In turn, these genera share phylogenetic affinities with Euphrasia and Bartsia.

Genus-level cladogram of the Rhinantheae.

Rhinantheae

Melampyrum

Rhynchocorys

	Lathraea

	Rhinanthus

Core Rhinantheae

Bartsia sensu stricto (Bartsia alpina)

Euphrasia

Tozzia

Hedbergia
(including Bartsia decurva + B. longiflora)

Bellardia

	Neobartsia (New World Bartsia)

	Parentucellia

Odontites sensu lato
(including Bornmuellerantha
and Bartsiella)

The cladogram has been reconstructed from nuclear and plastid DNA molecular characters (ITS, rps16 intron and trnK region).^[4]^[5]
