| Malea pilosa Lundell |
Malea is a genus of flowering plant in the family Ericaceae. The only species is Malea pilosa, native to Mexico.
Many botanists merge Malea into the large genus Vaccinium, where the species takes the name Vaccinium lundellianum L.O.Williams (the name Vaccinium pilosum cannot be used for this species as it already applies to a different species of Vaccinium).
