The Melastomataceae, with some 5858 species, are among the 10 largest families of
flowering plants. Melastomes are subcosmopolitan and mainly distributed in the tropics and …

Microlicieae are a monophyletic tribe comprising seven genera: Chaetostoma, Lavoisiera,
Microlicia ss, Poteranthera, Rhynchanthera, Stenodon and Trembleya. Microlicia ss includes …

The Melastomataceae, with ca. 177 genera and 5858 species, are among the ten most
species-rich families of angiosperms. Previous molecular phylogenetic analyses have …

The following guide is aimed at aiding in the curation of herbarium collections in
Melastomataceae, with an emphasis on the New World species. It contains a summary of the …

Premise of research. Phylogenetic analyses have shown that tribe Melastomateae is
biphyletic, consisting of two nonsister clades, the core Melastomateae and the Marcetia …

A systematic monograph is presented for Lavoisiera, a Brazilian endemic genus of 41
species that is centered in the campo rupestre ecoregion in the Brazilian Planalto south of …

Background In the past three decades, several studies have predominantly relied on a small
sample of the plastome to infer deep phylogenetic relationships in the species-rich …

This chapter summarizes the taxonomic history, phylogeny, and biogeographic relationships
of the Lavoisiereae together with a descriptive characterization emphasizing morphological …

In this study we describe areas of endemism from Brazilian mountaintops associated with
campo rupestre vegetation based on taxonomically verified records of Microlicieae …

Premise Putatively single‐copy nuclear (SCN) loci, which are identified using genomic
resources of closely related species, are ideal for phylogenomic inference. However …
