Abstract

A comparative study of the flavonoid chemistry of the Dilleniaceae is presented, in which special emphasis is given to the neotropical genera. Flavonoids are present, in diminishing order of frequency, as rhamnosides, galactosides, sulphates, arabinosides, glucuronides and glucosides. Besides the common aglycones there are also several O-methylated compounds. The distribution of the substances is reticulate and does not permit the recognition of taxa between the level of genus and family. An evolutionary interpretation is presented.
