Ochagavia

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).
