The Monimiaceae include 24 genera with a total of about 217 known species.

vicariance, but the dating of clades by molecular clock methods has shown that the presence of the Monimiaceae in Africa and South America can be explained only by long-distance dispersal.[6] Antarctica had coastal forests as recently as the mid-Miocene, and these could have provided an intermediate phase in dispersal between Australia and South America.[14]

Monimiaceae

History

The family Monimiaceae was erected in 1809 by

, recognized the Atherospermataceae as a separate family.

Jussieu used the now-obsolete genus names Ruizia, Ambora, Citrosma, and Pavonia (

correct name
for this genus.

In 1855,

Louis-René Tulasne wrote two landmark papers on the Monimiaceae.[18][19]
Using current names, the genera that he recognized were: Peumus, Monimia, Tambourissa, Hedycarya, Mollinedia, Kibara, Siparuna, Atherosperma, Laurelia, and Doryphora.

In 1898, Janet Russell Perkins began a series of articles on the Monimiaceae, but only two were ever completed. The second of these was mistitled as part III on its first page (compare to table of contents therein)[20] and covers the genus Siparuna, which is now grouped with Glossocalyx in the family Siparunaceae.

The first in this series covers the

sister to Siparuna.[22]

In this paper, Perkins named five new genera: Macropeplus, Macrotorus, Steganthera, Tetrasynandra, and Anthobembix. The genus Anthobembix consisted of two species that Perkins had transferred from Kibara. In 1942, these were transferred to Steganthera.[23] The genus Lauterbachia was named by Perkins in a flora published in 1901.[24]

A comprehensive treatment of the Monimiaceae was published by Perkins and

Das Pflanzenreich in 1901.[10]
In the part of their family that is still in the Monimiaceae, 20 genera were recognized, including Anthobembix. They placed Conuleum in synonymy under Siparuna and added four genera to those listed by Perkins in 1898. The new genera were Xymalos, Wilkiea, Lauterbachia, and Chloropatane.

The genus Chloropatane had been described by H.G. Adolf Engler in 1899. It was based on a specimen that was eventually shown to be a species of Erythrococca (Euphorbiaceae), but it is too fragmentary to be more precisely identified.

The family was reviewed again by Lillian L. Money et al. in 1950.[25]

The most recent

subfamilies: Glossocalycoideae, Siparunoideae, Atherospermatoideae, Monimioideae, Hortonioideae, and Mollinedioideae. The latter three constitute the Monimiaceae as defined in the APG III system, which was published in 2009.[26]
In these three subfamilies, Philipson recognized a total of 25 genera. He did not accept Anthobembix, but he did include the other 19 genera from the 1901 monograph by Perkins and Gilg. He also included six genera that had been published after Perkins and Gilg (1901): Decarydendron, Kibaropsis, Austromatthaea, Kairoa, Faika, and Parakibara. The latter three had been named by Philipson in the 1980s.

After Philipson's treatment of the Monimiaceae, the genera Hemmantia and "Endressia" were published in 2007 in

Selineae
.

phylogenies were produced that were based on much denser sampling.[6][32]
These have shown that the next revision of the family must make substantial changes to the genera.

Classification

From the time that the family Monimiaceae was established by Jussieu in 1809, until it was monographed by Philipson in 1993, it was usually circumscribed to include three distinct groups in the Laurales, which are recognized in the APG III system as the separate families

sensu stricto. The inclusion of Amborella and Trimenia
was always doubtful and was rejected by many. Their exclusion from the Monimiaceae was well established by the time Philipson wrote his treatise on the family.

Beginning with the ground-breaking paper by Mark W. Chase and many coauthors in 1993,

polyphyletic, as well, because the major part of it formed a clade with the Hernandiaceae and Lauraceae.[31]

Among the Hernandiaceae, Monimiaceae, and Lauraceae, the question of which two are

most closely related has been remarkably difficult to answer.[4] Different studies have yielded different results, but none with strong statistical support.[30][32] This is surprising, as the Hernandiaceae and Lauraceae are much closer to each other morphologically than either of them is to the Monimiaceae.[citation needed
]

Systematics

In 1993, Philipson divided the subfamily Mollinedioideae into three tribes: Hedycaryeae, Mollinedieae, and Hennecartieae.[9] The Hennecartieae consisted of a single species: Hennecartia omphalandra. It is now known that Hennecartia is nested within the Mollinedieae and is sister to a clade consisting of the rest of the neotropical Monimiaceae.[6] The family Mollinedieae is strongly supported as monophyletic if Hennecartia is included.

The monophyly of the Hedycaryeae is not supported or rejected by either of the recent molecular phylogenetic studies.[6][32] One study resolved Xymalos as sister to the rest of the Mollinedioideae, but this result had only weak maximum likelihood bootstrap support.[6]

In the next revision of the Monimiaceae, several genera will need to be recircumscribed or placed in synonymy with others. Tetrasynandra and Grazielanthus are embedded within Steganthera and Mollinedia, respectively. Kibaropsis forms a clade with Hedycarya arborea, the type species of Hedycarya. The monophyly of Levieria is questionable, but only one species has been sampled for DNA. Levieria acuminata is nested within Hedycarya. Wilkiea, meanwhile, is polyphyletic and should be divided into at least three genera.[6] The type species, W. calyptrocalyx is now regarded as a synonym of Wilkiea huegeliana,[27] and the latter is placed by some authors in synonymy with Wilkiea macrophylla.[citation needed]
