Nomenclatural Revision and Phylogenetic Analysis of the Genus Francoa Cav. (Francoaceae A.Juss.)

Project summary:

This project presents an integrated nomenclatural, morphological, and molecular revision of Francoa, an endemic Chilean genus with long-standing taxonomic uncertainty. By combining herbarium studies, field collections, and phylogenetic analyses, it evaluates species delimitation hypotheses and establishes a modern, evidence-based taxonomic framework supporting conservation and evolutionary research.
