Zaluzianskya is a genus of flowering plants now regarded as a member of the Scrophulariaceae, the figwort family. The genus is endemic to Southern Africa and includes some described sixty species.
==Taxonomy== Zaluzianskya was named in honour of Adam Zalužanský ze Zalužan, 1558–1613, a physician of Prague, author of Methodus Herbariae, 1592. Zaluziansky seems to have been a deservedly prominent botanist in his day, with some views on taxonomy quite advanced for his time.
