A revised subgeneric classification of the neotropical genus Zapoteca (Caesalpinioideae; Fabaceae)

The subgeneric classification of the neotropical legume genus Zapoteca is revised based on an analysis of the nuclear ETS and ITS, and the plastid trnL-trnF DNA-regions. Subgenus Ravenia is included in subg. Zapoteca, Z. quichoi is transferred from subg. Amazonica to subg. Zapoteca, Z. sousae is included in subg. Zapoteca and one new subgenus, subg. Subamazonica, is described to accommodate the species Z. filipes and Z. scutellifera. A key to the subgenera is presented.Funding provided by: Royal Swedish Academy of SciencesCrossref Funder Registry ID: http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100001725Funding provided by: Stiftelsen Lars Hiertas MinneCrossref Funder Registry ID: http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100004722Funding provided by: Helge Ax:son Johnsons StiftelseCrossref Funder Registry ID: http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100003788Funding provided by: Knigges resestipendiumCrossref Funder Registry ID: Funding provided by: R.
