| Summary: | A review of menospecific Hestia S.Y.Wong & P.C.Boyce is presented. The morphological adaptations it shows to a fire-prone habitat are highlighted.
Combined molecular and morphological analyses of tribe Schismatoglottideae have begun to revel that certain of the generic concepts proposed by Hay and Yuzammi (2000) and Bogner and hay (2000) do not reflect the most probable evolutionary history of the extant taxa. Much recent analyses have focused on the so-called “satellite genera” (e.g., Boyce and Wong 2008, Low et al. 2011, Wong and Boyce 2010b,2012). |
