abstract = {The genus Glomeropitcairnia has long been poorly understood. It has been placed variously within the bromeliad subfamily Tillandsioideae along with five other recognized tillandsioid genera (Catopsis, Guzmania, Mezobromelia, Tillandsia, and Vriesea); in its own tribe of the tillandsioid subfamily; and, alternatively, has been considered to be a subgenus within Pitcairnia (subfamily Pitcairnioideae). New data on chromosomes and stigma architecture provide, respectively, plesiomorphies and autapomorphies relative to the family's sister taxon. All available data including morphology and anatomy, as well as the cladistic analysis, support retention of Glomeropitcairnia within subfamily Tillandsioideae and suggest that the genus is sister taxon to the most recent common ancestor of the tillandsioid genera, Guzmania and Mezobromelia.}
