Discussion
Genus 1, species 1.
Placement of Eucommia has been controversial, with various authors allying it with Cornales, Euphorbiaceae, Hamamelidaceae, Trochodendraceae, and Ulmaceae (reviewed in M. A. Vincent 2002). Most recent DNA analyses support recognizing Eucommiaceae as a distinct family in Garryales (K. Bremer et al. 2001; D. E. Soltis et al. 2000). Fossil remains of Eucommia have been found in North America, Europe, and Asia, evidence that the genus was widespread in the Cenozoic and that its present-day distribution is relictual (V. B. Call and D. L. Dilcher 1997).
