Hoodia is a genus in the plant family Apocynaceae, under the subfamily Asclepiadaceae. Stevens PF (2001 onwards). Gentianales. Angiosperm Phylogeny Website (Missouri Botanical Gardens). Version 7, May 2006. Retrieved July 14, 2006. Hoodias are stem succulents, described as "Cactiform" because of their remarkable similarity to the unrelated Cactus family. They can reach up to 1 m high and present exuberant flowers, often with flesh colour and strong smell.

Hoodias are protected plants, typical of the Namib Desert, ranging from Central Namibia to southern Angola, especially in plains and rocky areas. Common names include "Bushman's Hat" and "Queen of the Namib". The indigenous Bushmen call this plant Xhoba (pronounced "go-buh").

Hoodias are grown as garden plants, and one species, Hoodia gordonii is being investigated for use as an appetite suppressant.
