A revision of the genus Armeria (Plumbaginaceae) in peninsular Italy and Sicily through an integrative taxonomic approach

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract The genus Armeria in peninsular Italy has been affected by taxonomic ambiguity for more than a century due to high morphological variability. We present a comprehensive revision of peninsular Italian and Sicilian Armeria species, using an integrated taxonomic approach that combines molecular phylogeny, plant and seed morphometrics, and ...

Molecular investigation of the phylogenetic placement of Kartalinia and a revision of Bituminaria (Fabaceae: Psoraleeae)

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract The genus Kartalinia was described to accommodate a single, obscure species, Psoralea acaulis, based on its unique morphology and karyology. No concerted molecular phylogenetic studies were available for this species at the time, and therefore its phylogenetic position was uncertain.
