Abstract

The eighteen southeastern genera of the Ranuncuiaceae famiiy yielded eight evolutionary trees when analyzed using the PENNY routine of the PHYLIP program with a data matrix of 19 genera by 41 characters. Each tree required 70 steps, and the trees were the most parsimonious found for the data.
