Parodiodendron is a monotypic plant genus under the family Picrodendraceae, described as a genus in 1969.[3][4] The sole species is Parodiodendron marginivillosum (Speg.) Hunz..[5]

It is found in northern Argentina (Jujuy and Salta Provinces), Bolivia (Tarija and Santa Cruz departments).[2][6]

It is listed as vulnerable, threatened by habitat loss.[1]

The genus name of Parodiodendron is in honour of Lorenzo Raimundo Parodi (1895–1966), an Argentinian botanist and agricultural engineer, professor of botany in Buenos Aires and La Plata with a focus on South American grasses.[7] It was first described and published in Kurtziana Vol.5 on page 331 in 1969.[5]
