Stapelia et al.

edit

Phylogenetic studies have shown that all the "stapelioid" genera (Stapelia, among many others) are nested within/derived from Ceropegia. All of these genera have recently been synonymized under a greatly expanded Ceropegia s.l. The phylogenies seem pretty solid, but it remains to be seen whether this massive lumping will be widely accepted. The issue should at least be addressed in this article. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0254629916339242 108.51.174.100 (talk) 19:09, 17 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
