Guatteria (Annonaceae) is a large genus of neotropical trees, comprising c. 265 species (Chatrou et al, 2004)
Phylogenetic analyses (Erkens et al, in prep.) based on four plastid markers show that Guatteria is monophyletic and that most of the endemic Central American Guatteria species form a monophyletic group
