Species of plant
Ochagavia is a plant genus in the plant family Bromeliaceae, subfamily Bromelioideae. The genus is named for Silvestre Ochagavía Errázuriz, a Chilean lawyer and minister of education from the 19th century. It is endemic to southern and central Chile (including the Juan Fernández Islands). This genus is represented by four accepted species.
"Ochagavia" species are morphologically similar to the monotypic genus "Fascicularia" in terms of leaf anatomy. They can be distinguished by floral morphology, habitat ("Ochagavia" species are terrestrial or saxicolous and "Fascicularia" is an epiphyte), and distribution range (only "Fascicularia" can be found in the southern Valdivian temperate forests).
