Phrymaceae (from the genus Phryma, a name of unknown derivation). Lopseed Family. Fig. 54. Perennial herbs: leaves opposite, simple: flowers bisexual, bilabiate; calyx 5-cleft, 2-lipped; corolla 5-lobed, 2-lipped, gamopetalous, hypogynous; stamens 4, didynamous, included, epipetalous; ovary superior, 1-celled; ovule 1, sub-basal, straight (orthotropous); style 1; stigmas 2: fruit dry, indehiscent, inclosed in the abruptly reflexed calyx, the teeth of which are hooked.

A single genus and species occurs in the eastern United States and East Asia. The family is related to the Verbenaceae and was formerly united with that family; but the peculiar, 1-seeded fruit, with a straight orthotropous seed is distinctive.

Phryma Leptostachya (lopseed) has been in the trade as an ornamental garden plant.
