Wunderlichioideae
The Wunderlichioideae are a subfamily of flowering plants belonging to the family Asteraceae. The subfamily includes eight genera and about 24 species that are concentrated in Brazil ('' Wunderlichia'') and Guyana ('' Chimantaea'', '' Stenopadus'', and '' Stomatochaeta''), with some species in other South America countries ('' Hyalis'' and '' Ianthopappus'') and others ('' Nouelia'' and ''Leucomeris'') in Southeast Asia and the Himalayas.Panero, J. L., and V. A. FunkThe value of sampling anomalous taxa in phylogenetic studies: major clades of the Asteraceae revealed.Mol. Phylogenet. Evol. 2008; 47: 757-782. Distinguishing features of the members of this subfamily are presence of styles with glabrous style branches and a deletion in the ''rpoB'' gene. Two tribes, Wunderlicheae and Hyalideae, are recognised.
