|discussion=<p>Species 1.</p><!--
--><p>Fallugia has long been considered closely related to Cercocarpus, Cowania, and Dryas. 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 Geum in subfam. Rosoideae, tribe Colurieae.</p>
