Distribution

Introduced; s Europe, Asia, n Africa, introduced also in South America, s Africa, Pacific Islands, Australia.

Discussion

Species 7 (1 in the flora).

Using molecular data, P. Vargas et al. (2004) and M. Fernández-Mazuecos et al. (2013) found Misopates to be monophyletic and sister to the Old World genera Acanthorrhinum Rothmaler and Pseudomisopates Güemes. Misopates is distinguished from related genera in the flora area by its annual habit, calyx lobes usually longer than the corolla tubes, and capsules with unequal locules.

Selected References

None.
