Warnockia is a genus from the family Lamiaceae, first described in 1996. It contains only one known species, Warnockia scutellarioides, the prairie brazosmint, native to the south-central United States and northern Mexico.

Etymology

The genus name honors Barton Warnock, a 20th-century Texan botanist.
The specific epithet scutellarioides means "Scutellaria-like", referring to a resemblance to another genus in the Lamiaceae.
It was also called the prairie brazoria, as it was formerly placed in the genus Brazoria.
