Mimulus section Paradanthus

Seep monkeyflower Mimulus guttatus, copyright Walter Siegmund.

Belongs within: Phrymaceae.

The section Paradanthus of the genus Mimulus has been recognised as including monkeyflowers with a deciduous corolla with an open mouth, calyx lobes much shorter than the tube, and with the overall plant being glabrous, puberulent or with more or less straight hairs (Hickman 1993). Phylogenetic analysis indicates that this group is non-monophyletic with North American species of Paradanthus paraphyletic to the sections Erythranthe and Simiolus (Beardsley et al. 2004).
