Abstract
Chrysanthemum segetum L., C. coronarium L. and Heteranthemis viscidehirta Schott are annual representatives of the subtribe Chrysantheminae Less. emend. Bremer (Anthemideae-Asteraceae). Contrary to earlier concepts, Chrysanthemum comprises only two species, occurring in the Mediterranean. The monotypic genus Heteranthemis, earlier considered to be Chrysanthemum, is distributed in the same area. This subtribe comprises further the Macaronesian endemic Argyranthemum Web. ex Schultz-Bip. (24 species) and the annual monotypic Ismelia Cass. (= C. carinatum; Bremer and Humphries, 1993). Phylogenetic studies confirmed the monophyly of this group (Francisco-Ortega et al., 1997; Oberprieler and Vogt, 2000). Chrysanthemum segetum L., C. coronarium L. and Heteranthemis viscidehirta were cultivated in the Botanischer Garten der Technischen Universitat Darmstadt. Voucher specimens are deposited in the herbarium of the Institut fur Botanik in
