Zusammenfassung
The central Asian endemic Xylanthemum tianschanicum (Krasch) Muradyan (Compositae Anthemideae) is the only species of Xylanthemum Tzvelev with radiate capitula While the species was formerly found to be closely related to members of the subtribe Handelinae other representatives of the genus were considered to be similar to members of Tanacetum In order to assess its phylogenetic relationships and taxonomic classification a molecular analysis based on ITS sequences of 13 representatives of the subtribe Handeliinae and 17 species of three other subtribes (Anthemidinae Artemisiinae and Matricariiinae) was performed Due to the close relationship of the X tianschanicum to the type species of Richteria (Richteria pyrethroides) in a well supported clade (PP = 1 BS = 100%) which is supported by morphological features concerning the indumentum capitulum morphology and pappus structure the combination Richteria tianschanica (Krasch) Sonboli & Oberpr is proposed based on the basionym Pyrethrum tianschanicum Krasch (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved
