--><p><i>Fallugia</i> has long been considered closely related to <i>Cercocarpus</i>, Cowania, and <i>Dryas</i>. Cytologic (E. D. McArthur et al. 1983), morphologic (J. Henrickson 2001), and molecular (D. R. Morgan et al. 1994; D. Potter et al. 2007) data substantiate its close relationship with <i>Geum</i> in subfam. Rosoideae, tribe Colurieae.</p>
