List of Oxytropis species

Last updated

The following species in the flowering plant genus Oxytropis , one of the genera called the locoweeds, are accepted by Plants of the World Online. [1] Although monophyletic, this genus has undergone such rapid, "explosive" evolutionary radiation that conventional molecular methods will not be able to elucidate its infrageneric relationships.

Onobrychis, the sainfoins, are a genus of Eurasian perennial herbaceous plants of the legume family (Fabaceae). Including doubtfully distinct species and provisionally accepted taxa, about 150 species are presently known. The Flora Europaea lists 23 species of Onobrychis; the main centre of diversity extends from Central Asia to Iran, with 56 species – 27 of which are endemic – in the latter country alone. O. viciifolia is naturalized throughout many countries in Europe and North America grasslands on calcareous soils.
