Shrubs; unarmed (appearing ± thorny in Coleogyne). Leaves alternate or opposite, simple; stipules persistent or deciduous, free; venation pinnate. Flowers: perianth and androecium perigynous; epicalyx bractlets absent (present in Rhodotypos); hypanthium flat, shallowly cupped, saucer-shaped, or campanulate; torus absent, inconspicuous, or a rim or tubelike sheath surrounding carpels; carpels 2–5(–8) (usually 1 in Coleogyne), distinct, free, styles lateral or subapical (Neviusia), distinct; ovules 1 or 2, marginal, collateral when 2. Fruits aggregated nutlets or achenes; styles persistent, not elongate.
Distribution
North America, Asia, introduced in Europe.
Discussion
Genera 4, species 5 (4 genera, 5 species in the flora).
The base chromosome number for Kerrieae is x = 8 or 9. C. Kalkman (2004) described the fruits of Kerrieae as drupaceous achenes, with slightly fleshy mesocarp that dry at maturity and woody endocarp. Such fruits might easily be interpreted as nutlets or achenes. The fruit of Coleogyne, unplaced as to tribe in his treatment, have a coriaceous pericarp and can be considered achenes.
Selected References
None.
