--><p>Vestiture on young stems, inflorescences, leaves, hypanthia, and sepals of <i>Chamaebatiaria</i> is complex, consisting of short, straight or curved, sessile hairs; sessile or thick-stalked stellate clusters of flattened, more or less twisted hairs; and sessile, subsessile, or thick-stalked stipitate glands. In some plants, glands will exude material rendering the stems and leaves glutinous. They may have hairs on the gland tip or on the stalk below the gland.</p><!--
--><p>Molecular data indicate relationships of <i>Chamaebatiaria</i> with the Sorbariaeae, with the Asian <i>Sorbaria</i> and Spiraeanthus (Fischer & C. A. Meyer) Maximowicz, and the North American <i>Adenostoma</i> (D. Potter et al. 2007). The similarity to <i>Chamaebatia</i> is striking. J. A. Wolfe and W. C. Wehr (1988) presented interesting fossil evidence of leaf structure development.</p>
