Discussion

Species 1.

Molecular phylogenetic analyses indicate a close relationship of Ditrysinia with Microstachys, but taxon sampling is too sparse to determine if Ditrysinia should contain other species that are now classified in polyphyletic Sebastiania (K. Wurdack et al. 2005).

Selected References

None.
