Oedera is a genus of African flowering plants in the tribe Gnaphalieae within the family Asteraceae. The genus is named in honor of the Danish botanist Georg Christian Oeder.

The species have yellow central and ray florets in their flower-heads. Their seeds all have a little crown of scales, and the leaves are often fragrant and unpalatable for stock grazing.[3]
