(including ''Dupya'') * '' Dussia'' Krug & Urb. ex Taub. * '' Mildbraediodendron'' Harms * '' Myrocarpus'' Allemão * ''Myrospermum'' Jacq. * ''Myroxylon'' L.f. * '' Petaladenium'' Ducke This clade does not currently have a node-based, phylogenetic definition. It also lacks a clear morphological synapomorphy, however, members of the Amburaneae, as well as species found in its sister group, Dipterygeae The tribe Dipterygeae is one of the subdivisions of the plant family Fabaceae. It was recently recircumscribed to include the following genera: * ''Dipteryx'' Schreb. * '' Monopteryx'' Spruce ex Benth. * '' Pterodon'' Vogel * ''Taralea'' Aubl.

Faboideae
The Faboideae are a subfamily of the flowering plant family Fabaceae or Leguminosae. An acceptable alternative name for the subfamily is Papilionoideae, or Papilionaceae when this group of plants is treated as a family. This subfamily is widely distributed, and members are adapted to a wide variety of environments. Faboideae may be trees, shrubs, or herbaceous plants. Members include the pea, the sweet pea, the laburnum, and other legumes. The pea-shaped flowers are characteristic of the Faboideae subfamily and root nodulation is very common. Genera The type genus, ''Faba'', is a synonym of ''Vicia'', and is listed here as ''Vicia''. *'' Abrus'' *'' Acmispon'' *'' Acosmium'' *'' Adenocarpus'' *'' Adenodolichos'' *'' Adesmia'' *'' Aenictophyton'' *'' Aeschynomene'' *'' Afgekia'' *'' Aganope'' *'' Airyantha'' *'' Aldina'' *'' Alexa'' *'' Alhagi'' *'' Alistilus'' *'' Almaleea'' *'' Alysicarpus'' *'' Amburana'' *'' Amicia'' *'' Ammodendron'' *'' Ammopiptanthus'' *'' Ammot ...

Sophoreae
The tribe (biology), tribe Sophoreae is one of the subdivisions of the plant family (biology), family Fabaceae. Traditionally this tribe has been used as a wastebasket taxon to accommodate genera of Faboideae which exhibit actinomorphic, rather than zygomorphic floral symmetry and/or incompletely differentiated petals and free stamens. Various morphological and molecular phylogeny, molecular analyses indicated that Sophoreae as traditionally circumscription (taxonomy), circumscribed was polyphyly, polyphyletic. This led to a re-circumscription of Sophoreae, which resulted in the transfer of many genera to other tribes (Amburaneae, Angylocalyceae, Baphieae, Camoensieae, the Cladrastis clade, ''Cladrastis'' clade, Exostyleae, Leptolobieae, Ormosieae, Podalyrieae, and the Vataireoids). This also necessitated the inclusion of two former tribes, Euchresteae and Thermopsideae, in the new definition of Sophoreae. Tribe Sophoreae, as currently circumscribed, consistently forms a monophyly, ...

Swartzieae
The tribe (biology), tribe Swartzieae is an early-branching monophyly, monophyletic clade of the flowering plant subfamily Faboideae or Papilionaceae. Traditionally this tribe has been used as a wastebasket taxon to accommodate genera of Faboideae which exhibit actinomorphic, rather than zygomorphic floral symmetry and/or incompletely differentiated petals and free stamens. It was recently circumscription (taxonomy), revised and most of its genera were redistributed to other tribes (Amburaneae, Baphieae, and Exostyleae). Under its new circumscription, this clade is consistently resolved in molecular phylogeny, molecular phylogenies. Members of this tribe possess "non-papilionate swartzioid flowers[…]largely characterized by a tendency to lack petals combined with a profusion and elaboration of free stamens" and a "lack of unidirectional order in the initiation of the stamens". They also have "complete or near complete fusion of sepals resulting from intercalary growth early in de ...

Dipterygeae
The tribe Dipterygeae is one of the subdivisions of the plant family Fabaceae. It was recently recircumscribed to include the following genera: * ''Dipteryx'' Schreb. * '' Monopteryx'' Spruce ex Benth. * '' Pterodon'' Vogel * ''Taralea'' Aubl. This clade does not currently have a node-based, phylogenetic definition. A synapomorphy In phylogenetics, an apomorphy (or derived trait) is a novel Phenotypic trait, character or character state that has evolution, evolved from its ancestral form (or Plesiomorphy and symplesiomorphy, plesiomorphy). A synapomorphy is an apomorphy sh ... that unites the members of this tribe is "an unusual two-lipped calyx in which the two upper lobes are much enlarged and the three lower lobes are reduced to small teeth."

Myroxylon
''Myroxylon'' is a genus of Fabaceae native to Latin America. History The first described species in this genus was '' M. balsamum.'' It was originally described in 1753 by Linnaeus as ''Toluifera balsamum'', based on a specimen collected in the province of Cartagena (at the time Tolú was located in the province of Cartagena). The genus ''Myroxylon'' was first established by Linnaeus filius in 1781, when he described '' M. peruiferum'' based on a specimen collected by Mutis in South America. Although ''Toluifera'' is prior in term of publication time, ''Myroxylon'' is chosen as the conserved name and ''Toluifera'' is rejected. The name derives from Greek μύρρα (''myrrha'', " myrrh") and ξύλον (''xylon'', "wood"). Species Some authors recognize infra-specific taxa based, mainly, in their balsam phytochemistry; while other authors do not recognize such categories. There are reports of differences in composition of balsams obtained from ''M. balsamum'' var. ''balsa ...
