			'''''Lindera''''' is a genus of about 80-100 species of [[flowering plant]]s in the family [[Lauraceae]], mostly native to eastern [[Asia]] but with three species in eastern [[North America]]. The species are [[shrub]]s and small [[tree]]s; common names include '''Spicebush''' and '''Benjamin Bush'''.

			The [[leaf\|leaves]] can be either [[deciduous]] or [[evergreen]] depending on species, and are alternate, entire or three-lobed, and strongly spicy-aromatic. The [[flower]]s are small, yellowish, with six petaloid sepals and no petals. The [[fruit]] is a small red, purple or black [[drupe]] containing a single [[seed]].

			''Lindera'' species are used as food plants by the [[larva]]e of some [[Lepidoptera]] species including [[Engrailed\|The Engrailed]]. One of the world's rarest bee species, the [[Andrenidae\|andrenid]] bee ''[[Andrena lauracea]]'' is apparently a specialist on ''Lindera'' (see ''[[Lindera benzoin]]'').
