Discussion
Species 12 (9 in the flora).
Sairocarpus is sometimes treated as a subgenus of Antirrhinum (D. M. Thompson 1988; M. Wetherwax and Thompson 2012). For a discussion of the generic segregates, see 2. Antirrhinum.
Sairocarpus is a New World genus distinguished from the Old World Antirrhinum by its smaller flowers, disjunct distribution, and base chromosome number x = 8 following R. K. Oyama and D. A. Baum (2004) and P. Vargas et al. (2004). Additional study of generic limits may be warranted since more complete ITS sampling, including all Sairocarpus species in the flora area (M. Fernández-Mazuecos et al. 2013), revealed that Sairocarpus is polyphyletic if Gambelia, Howelliella, Mohavea, and Neogaerrhinum are recognized. Other New World-only segregates of Antirrhinum are Gambelia, Howelliella, Mohavea, Neogaerrhinum, and Pseudorontium; they can be distinguished from Sairocarpus by their fruits with equal locules. Plants of Mohavea and Pseudorontium also have distinctive, winged seeds.
Some species of Sairocarpus have filiform, twining branches, usually on the distal parts of the stems. These branches wrap around nearby objects giving additional support to these weak-stemmed plants.
Cleistogamous and chasmogamous flowers are produced in some species of Sairocarpus. The cleistogamous flowers usually form early in the season and are smaller and paler than the chasmogamous flowers. In species with twining branches, cleistogamous flowers are usually borne close to the main stem. Fruits from cleistogamous flowers are usually smaller and have fewer seeds than those from chasmogamous flowers. Only chasmogamous flowers are described below.
