Vaccinieae is a tribe of over 1000 species in the plant family Ericaceae. [2] The tribe consists of morphologically diverse woody plants. Species within Vaccinieae can be found on all continents except Australia and Antarctica. [2] Genetic analysis indicates that Vaccinieae is not a monophyletic group. [2]
