Weberbauera is a genus of flowering plants in the crucifer family Brassicaceae, native to the central Andes; Peru, Chile, Bolivia, and Argentina.[2][3]

The genus has simple or branched trichomes, basal leaves with petioles which are linear to oblanceolate or oblong, relatively elongated stems with or without cauline leaves, inflorescences which are ebracteate or basally bracteate racemes which are longer than basal leaves, and seeds without mucilage. The fruit are curved or straight siliques which are torulose or not.[3]

It is quite similar in fruit and flower to Zuloagocardamum and Chilocardamum.[3]
