'''''Viguiera''''' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. It contains around 19–40 species, which are commonly known as '''goldeneyes''' and are native to the New World.<ref>{{cite journal |first=S. F. |last=Blake |year=1918 |title=A revision of the genus ''Viguiera'' |journal=Contributions from the Gray Herbarium of Harvard University |volume=54}}</ref> These are herbs to bushy shrubs that bear yellow or orange daisy-like flowers.
==Taxonomy== The name honours French physician L. G. Alexandre Viguier (1790–1867).<ref name="eFloras">{{cite web |url=http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=1&taxon_id=134578 |first=Edward E. |last=Schilling |title=301.

Recent molecular phylogenetic studies by botanists Schilling and Panero in 2011, showed that these species are within a large group that were formerly classified in the genus ''Viguiera'', and so ''Aldama'' has been expanded to include a total of 118 species (most of those from ''Viguiera'').<ref name="Schilling2011">{{cite journal |last1=Schilling |first1=Edward E. |last2=Panero |first2=Jose L. |title=A revised classification of subtribe Helianthinae (Asteraceae: Heliantheae) II.
