Systematics of the genus Bdallophytum (Cytinaceae)
The genus Bdallophytum is comprised of root parasitic plants distributed in northern neotropics. In Mexico occur all the species of the genus, two of which are endemic.

| description | The genus Bdallophytum is comprised of root parasitic plants distributed in northern neotropics. In Mexico occur all the species of the genus, two of which are endemic. The genus has previously been positioned within the tribe Cytineae of the Rafflesiaceae, but based on results from molecular phylogenetic analyses, this tribe is currently recognized at the rank of family as Cytinaceae. Historically, one to four species have been accepted in the genus, and the most-recent taxonomic treatment for the genus was realized more than 70 years ago. In the present work, a principal coordinate analysis was conducted in order to evaluate the identity and number of species in this genus. The results of this analysis suggest the recognition of three species. A taxonomic study with a key to species is presented, along with bibliographic information, morphological descriptions, specimens examined, ecological information, distributional maps and photos of the species. |

Bdallophytum Cytinaceae Mexico neotropics parasitic plants Bdallophytum Cytinaceae México neotrópico plantas parásitas The genus Bdallophytum is comprised of root parasitic plants distributed in northern neotropics. In Mexico occur all the species of the genus, two of which are endemic. The genus has previously been positioned within the tribe Cytineae of the Rafflesiaceae, but based on results from molecular phylogenetic analyses, this tribe is currently recognized at the rank of family as Cytinaceae. Historically, one to four species have been accepted in the genus, and the most-recent taxonomic treatment for the genus was realized more than 70 years ago. In the present work, a principal coordinate analysis was conducted in order to evaluate the identity and number of species in this genus.

A taxonomic study with a key to species is presented, along with bibliographic information, morphological descriptions, specimens examined, ecological information, distributional maps and photos of the species. El género Bdallophytum está integrado por plantas parásitas de raíces y restringe su distribución a la parte septentrional del neotrópico. En México se presentan todas sus especies, dos de las cuales son endémicas. Anteriormente se le ubicaba en la tribu Cytineae de la familia Rafflesiaceae, pero según los estudios filogenéticos basados en datos moleculares, este grupo se reconoce ahora a nivel de familia como Cytinaceae. En su historia se han reconocido para Bdallophytum de uno a cuatro componentes y la última revisión taxonómica para el género fue realizada hace más de 70 años. El presente trabajo se apoya en un análisis de coordenadas principales para evaluar la identidad y número de miembros que lo integran, reconociéndose tres especies. Se proporciona una clave de su identificación, así como datos bibliográficos, descripciones morfológicas, enumeración de los ejemplares estudiados, información ecológica, mapas de distribución y fotografías.
