abstract = {The genus Thottea comprises about 35 species distributed from India throughout
Southeast Asia. However, most of the species have a narrow distribution. A first molecular
phylogeny based on the chloroplast trnK intron, matK gene and trnK-psbA spacer is presented
and confirms the monophyly of the genus according to Hou in 1981. Earlier subdivisions into
the sections or genera Apama and Thottea could not be substantiated since both proved to be
paraphyletic with respect to each other. The taxonomic and systematic history of Thottea is
discussed with respect to molecular and morphological data. Thottea piperiformis is sister to all
other species, which gives limited recognition to Asiphonia piperiformis as proposed by Huber
(1985). Thottea tomentosa, one of the smallest and most widespread species is subsequently
sister to all remaining species. Thottea diversified in two biogeographic regions: the Western
Ghats in India and the Indo-Malayan region. A high degree of endemism is observed resulting
from the presence of very few species shared between islands, which might be the result of a
single colonisation and subsequent radiation. Within Piperales, Thottea holds a key position
between the herbaceous Asaroideae and the woody Aristolochioideae.}
