Sarcobatus, is a North American genus of two species of flowering plants, formerly considered to be a single species. Common names for
S. vermiculatus include
greasewood,
seepwood, and
saltbush. Traditionally,
Sarcobatus has been treated in the family Chenopodiaceae, but the APG III system of 2009 recognizes it as the sole genus in the family
Sarcobataceae.
