'''''Swainsona''''' is a large genus of [[flowering plant]]s native to [[Australasia]]. There are 85 species, all but one of which is endemic to [[Australia]]; the exception, ''[[Swainsona novae-zelandiae|S. novae-zelandiae]]'', occurs only in [[New Zealand]].
 +
 +
A member of the family [[Fabaceae]] ([[legume]]s, it is most closely related to the New Zealand genera ''[[Montigena]]'' (scree pea), ''[[Clianthus]]'' (kakabeak), and ''Carmichaelia'' ([[New Zealand broom]]).<ref name=wagstaff>{{cite journal |last=Wagstaff |first=Steven J. |authorlink= |coauthors=Peter B.

''Swainsona'' is named after English botanist [[Isaac Swainson]].
 +
 +
A few species are known to produce [[swainsonine]], a [[phytotoxin]] harmful to [[livestock]] (see [[Locoweed]]).  In Australia, animals [[Substance intoxication|intoxicated]] with swainsonine are said to be [[pea struck]].
