Ophiorrhiza is a genus of flowering plants in the coffee family (Rubiaceae). It contains 378 species native to the Indian subcontinent, Indochina, China, Taiwan, Japan, Malesia, Papuasia, Queensland, and the South Pacific.[1] Species of the genus contain camptothecin, an alkaloid used to make chemotherapeutic agents.[2][3] Many Ophiorrhiza species are endemic to certain areas of the Western Ghats.
