'''''Villadia''''' is a [genus](/source/genus) of plants in the [family](/source/Family_(taxonomy)) [Crassulaceae](/source/Crassulaceae). It includes about 25 to 30 [species](/source/species) distributed from [Texas](/source/Texas) to [Peru](/source/Peru).

==Taxonomy==
''Altamiranoa'' was a [genus](/source/genus) of the [Crassulaceae](/source/Crassulaceae), that [Joseph Nelson Rose](/source/Joseph_Nelson_Rose) proposed in the early 1900s for 12 Mexican species, three described as new and nine formerly in ''[Cotyledon](/source/Cotyledon)'', ''[Sedum](/source/Sedum)'', or ''[Umbilicus](/source/Umbilicus_(plant))''. The name was dedicated to [Fernando Altamirano](/source/Fernando_Altamirano), a Mexican physician, botanist and naturalist that co-worked with [J. N. Rose](/source/Joseph_Nelson_Rose).

Baehni (1937) united the genus ''Altamiranoa'' with ''Villadia'', but Walther (1938) refuted the argument and proposed the combined genus be called species of ''Altamiranoa'' are best dispersed in ''[Sedum](/source/Sedum)'' genus, but maintained the differences with genus ''Villadia''.
