1. Aconitum L. (monkshood)
About 100
species, North America, Europe, Asia.
Aconitum is closely related to Delphinium.
A recent molecular phylogenetic study of the group even suggested that Aconitum
might represent a basal group within a broadly circumscribed Delphinium
(Jabbour and Renner, 2011), but more detailed research involving a broader
sampling of species is needed to address this issue.
