Isidodendron is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Trigoniaceae. The only species is Isidodendron tripterocarpum.[1]

It is native to Colombia.[1]

The genus name of Isidodendron is in honour of Isidoro Cabrera-Rodriguez (b. 1922), a Colombian dendrologist and plant collector at the herbarium of the University of Valle,[2] with the prefix of dendron the Greek word which refers to tree.[3] The Latin specific epithet of tripterocarpum refers to 'tri' meaning 3, Greek 'pterón' meaning wing or feather and 'carp' meaning fruit from the Greek word of καρπός (karpós).[4]

Both genus and species were first described and published in Revista Acad. Colomb. Ci. Exact. Vol.24 on page 348 in 2000.[1][5]
