Schiekia is a monotypic genus of herbs belonging to the family Haemodoraceae and first described as a genus in 1957.[2][3] The sole recognised species, S. orinocensis is native to South America (Brazil, Bolivia, Colombia, Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana). This plant grasped the minds of many scientists who tried fruitlessly to discover its purpose in the natural order.[clarification needed] [1][4][5][6]
