Nectouxia is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Solanaceae. The only species is Nectouxia formosa. It is in the "Solanoideae" subfamily and in Subtribe "Salpichroinae", which is a subtribe of "Physaleae".
Its native range is found in Texas, USA and Mexico.
The genus name of "Nectouxia" is in honour of Hippolyte Nectoux (1759–1836), a French botanist, botanical garden director in Santo Domingo. He was also head gardener in Fontainebleau and founded a botanical garden in Rome. The Latin specific epithet of "formosa" is 
derived from "formosus" meaning (well-)formed and/or beautiful.
Both the genus and species were first described and published in F.W.H.von Humboldt, A.J.A.Bonpland &amp; C.S.Kunth, Nov. Gen. Sp. Vol.3 on page 10 in 1818.
