Cass.

The Tageteae Cass. are a tribe of the Asteroideae . It contains 16 to 23 genera with around 216 species. The center of biodiversity is the arid Mexican highlands:

features

Tageteae are annual or perennial, rarely water-living (aquatic) herbs or shrubs, rarely small trees. Some genera ( Flaveria , Pectis ) belong to the C4 plants . The leaves are alternate or opposite, the simple, pinnate or double-pinnate leaf blade is thread-like to broadly ovate in outline. There are often translucent oil glands on the leaf margin or scattered across the leaf blade. The basket-like head sitting in heads articles which as terminal, grape-like cymes are formed rarely sit individually schaftartigem, sometimes hollow head state. The heads have tubular florets on the inside, which are surrounded by a ring of bilobed ray florets, which can rarely be missing. The shell of the head is simple, dome-shaped or hemispherical, sometimes with an outer shell. The bracts of the head shell are in one to five rows, they are equal to each other or be greater towards the outside. They are mostly glandular, often with oval, sometimes line-shaped, translucent glands. The base of the head occasionally has scales, bristles or chaff leaves. The disc-shaped flowers are poisonous, sometimes some functionally purely male, their inflorescence is five-fold (rarely three or six-fold), usually radial, rarely somewhat zygomorphic . The appendages of the anthers usually do not have glandular hairs, they are usually solidified by the fact that their inner cell layer (endothecium) is reinforced as scleroid with one to two (rarely up to four) polar thickenings. The fruits ( achenes ) are cylindrical or spindle-shaped, rarely flattened and black, rarely brown, colored. They are streaky, loosely to densely hairy, usually condensed with the hair at the base and the tip, and usually have a recognizable stalk. The pappus consists of a few to a moderate number of scales or bristles, sometimes it has regressed to a wreath of scales or is completely absent.

distribution

The tribe is common in the New World and has its distribution center in Mexico and the southern United States. It also occurs in tropical to temperate South America (with the genus Schizotrichia endemic to Peru ) and in the Caribbean (with the genus Harnackia and Lescaillea endemic to Cuba ). Only one species, Flaveria australasica, is endemic to Australia. Some species, in particular from the genus Tagetes (marigolds), are popular ornamental plants and as such have been distributed worldwide, some of them later feral as neophytes.

Genera and species

With the exception of the species-rich genera Pectis (around 75 species), Tagetes (around 55 species) and Porophyllum (around 28 species), it mainly comprises species-poor or monotypical genera. The previously common division into sub-volumes is not supported by molecular analyzes.

  • Tageteae
    • Adenophyllum Pers. : The ten or so species are distributed from the southwestern USA (three species) over Mexico to Central America.
    • Arnicastrum Greenm. : The roughly two types are common in Mexico.
    • Bajacalia Loockerman, BLTurner & RKJansen : It was set up in 2003 with species that were separated from the genus Porophyllum . The only three species are endemic to the Baja California peninsula and the neighboring islands of Ángel de la Guarda, Dátil, San Esteban and Tiburón.
    • Boeberastrum (A. Gray) Rydb. : The only two species are only found in Baja California.
    • Boeberoides (DC.) Strother : It contains only one species:
    • Chrysactinia A.Gray : The five or so species are distributed from the southwestern USA (one species) to Mexico.
    • Clappia A.Gray : It contains only one species:
    • Comaclinium Scheidw. & Planch. : It contains only one type:

    • Dysodiopsis (A. Gray) Rydb. : It contains only one type:
      • Dysodiopsis tagetoides (Torrey & A.Gray) Rydb. : It thrives on limestone outcrops and soils formed over them at altitudes of 100 to 700 meters in the south-central US states of Oklahoma and Texas.
    • Dyssodia Cav. : The four or so species are distributed from North America (only one species) through Mexico to Central America. In South America it occurs as a neophyte.

    • Harnackia Urb. : It contains only one type:
    • Hydropectis Rydb. : The three or so species are common in Mexico.
    • Jamesianthus S.F. Blake & Sherff : It contains only one species:
    • Jaumea Pers. : The only two species are distributed from the western USA (one species) to northwestern Mexico and South America.
    • Lescaillea Griseb. : It contains only one type:
