Abstract

The neotropical genus Camptosema in its southern distribution is represented by four species: C. paraguariense, C. praeandinum, C. rubicundum and C. scarlatinum. Camptosema rubicundum, is the only species with all the diagnostic characters of the genus: i.e. tubular calyx. The other three taxa are related morphologically and cytologically to Galactia and Collaea, two closely allied genera in the subtribe Diocleinae. Individual and combined phylogenetic analyses of morphology, ITS and trnL-F were conducted in order to examine the position of these species as well as to explore its relationship with Galactia and Collaea species in southern South America. In none of the analyses do Camptosema species form a monophyletic group. Instead, they are scattered in different groups. These results together with cytological, morphological and AFLP data provides good support for re-evaluating the taxonomic position of these species within Camptosema.
