Verticordia sect. Corynatoca

Verticordia sect. Corynatoca is one of six sections in the subgenus Eperephes. It includes the single species Verticordia ovalifolia. Plants in this section are sometimes bushy shrubs, sometimes tall and open. The flower cup has very short appendages and the staminodes have raised glands on their surface.

When Alex George reviewed the genus in 1991, he described the section and gave it the name Corynatoca. The name "Corynatoca" is derived from the Ancient Greek words koryne meaning "a club" and atokos meaning "sterile" referring to the unusual staminodes.

The type and only species in this section is Verticordia ovalifolia.
