Notes on Isoglossinae (Acanthaceae) in Madagascar, with four new species of Isoglossa.
Current generic delimitation in subtribe Isoglossinae of Acanthaceae is discussed using available morphological and molecular data. Particular consideration is given to the small genera endemic to Madagascar — Benoist, S.Moore, Benoist and the illegitimate Benoist — and how these relate to the current circumscription of Oerst. The relative merits and...Darbyshire, Iain ; Onjalalaina, Guy E. ; Callmander, Martin W. ; Phillipson, Peter B. ; Kiel, Carrie A.

Justicieae II: Resolved Placement of Many Genera and Recognition of a New Lineage Sister to Isoglossinae.
We present phylogenetic results for Justicieae, the largest of the major lineages of Acanthaceae. With 300% more sequence data and a similarly increased but also more geographically representative taxon sample compared to the only previous study of the lineage as a whole, we confirm the existence of the Pseuderanthemum Lineage,...McDade, Lucinda A. ; Kiel, Carrie A. ; Daniel, Thomas F. ; Darbyshire, Iain

Phylogenomic Study of Monechma Reveals Two Divergent Plant Lineages of Ecological Importance in the African Savanna and Succulent Biomes.
Monechma Hochst. s.l. (Acanthaceae) is a diverse and ecologically important plant group in sub-Saharan Africa, well represented in the fire-prone savanna biome and with a striking radiation into the non-fire-prone succulent biome in the Namib Desert. We used RADseq to reconstruct evolutionary relationships within Monechma s.l. and found it to...Darbyshire, Iain ; Kiel, Carrie A. ; Astroth, Corine M. ; Dexter, Kyle G. ; Chase, Frances M. …
