Brickellia stolonifera is a Mexican species of flowering plants in the daisy family. It has been found only in the State of Coahuila in north-central Mexico.[1]

Brickellia stolonifera is similar to a species from nearby Chihuahua, B. simplex, but it has opposite leaves and flower heads grouped at the end of branches instead of in the axils of the leaves.[2]
