Sanguisorbeae

Spineless piripiri Acaena inermis, photographed by Carl Farmer.

Belongs within: Roperculina.

The Sanguisorbeae is a clade within the Rosaceae supported by molecular analysis, defined by Eriksson et al. (2003) as all taxa more closely related to Sanguisorba officinalis than to Rosa cinnamomea, Potentilla reptans or Fragaria vesca. Members of the subtribe Sanguisorbinae are further distinguished by the absence of a corolla. The petalous Agrimoniinae are supported as a clade by molecular data (Eriksson et al. 2003).
