Diplacus
''Diplacus'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Phrymaceae, which was traditionally placed in family Scrophulariaceae. It includes 49 species native to the western United States and northwestern Mexico. Most prefer dry and rocky areas. The genus ''Diplacus'' was first described by Thomas Nuttall in 1838. It was merged into ''Mimulus'' no later than 1905, until the 2012 restructuring. The 2012 restructuring of ''Mimulus'' by Barker, ''et al''., based largely upon DNA evidence, left seven species in ''Mimulus'', placed 111 into ''Erythranthe'' (species with axile placentation and long pedicels), placed 46 into ''Diplacus'' (species with parietal placentation and sessile flowers), placed two in '' Uvedalia'', and placed one each in '' Elacholoma'', ''Mimetanthe'', and '' Thyridia''. Species 49 species are accepted. [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Erythranthe
''Erythranthe'', the monkey-flowers and musk-flowers, is a diverse plant genus with more than 120 members (as of 2022) in the family (biology), family Phrymaceae. ''Erythranthe'' was originally described as a separate genus, then generally regarded as a section within the genus ''Mimulus'', and recently returned to generic rank. ''Mimulus'' sect. ''Diplacus'' was segregated from ''Mimulus'' as a separate genus at the same time. ''Mimulus'' remains as a small genus of eastern North America and the Southern Hemisphere. Molecular data show ''Erythranthe'' and ''Diplacus'' to be distinct evolutionary lines that are distinct from ''Mimulus'' as strictly defined, although this nomenclature is controversial. Member species are usually annual plant, annuals or herbaceous perennial plant, perennials. Flowers are red, pink, or yellow, often in various combinations. A large number of the ''Erythranthe'' species grow in moist to wet soils with some growing even in shallow water. They are not ...

Phrymaceae
Phrymaceae, also known as the lopseed family, is a small family of flowering plants in the order Lamiales.Peter F. Stevens (2001 onwards). "Phrymaceae" At: Angiosperm Phylogeny Website. At: Botanical Databases At: Missouri Botanical Garden Website. (see ''External links'' below) It has a nearly cosmopolitan distribution, but is concentrated in two centers of diversity, one in Australia, the other in western North America. Members of this family occur in diverse habitats, including deserts, river banks and mountains. Phrymaceae is a family of mostly herbs and a few subshrubs, bearing tubular, bilaterally symmetric flowers. They can be annuals or perennials. Some of the Australian genera are aquatic or semiaquatic. One of these, ''Glossostigma'', is among the smallest of flowering plants, larger than the aquatic '' Lemna'' but similar in size to the terrestrial '' Lepuropetalon''. The smallest members of Phrymaceae are only a few centimeters long, while the largest are woody ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
