A taxonomic revision of the family Symplocaceae (Symplocos Jacq. only) in Japan is provided. Throughout a broad survey of herbarium specimens and living plants in the field, pollen grains, inflorescences, and fruits are found to be major source of taxonomic character. Twenty-three species are recognized in Japan, one species (S. sonoharae) being assigned to subgen. Symplocos, and 22 species to subgeri. Hopea (L.) Clarke. The species of subgen. Hopea are further classified into eight sections…

Taxonomic revision of the Symplocos nakaharae complex (Symplocaceae) with special reference to fruit morphology
TLDR
Detailed morphological descriptions and geographical distribution information of the 14 taxa of the Symplocos nakaharae (Hayata) Masam complex are given, based primarily on flower and fruit characters.
A taxonomic revision of Antillean Symplocos (Symplocaceae)
TLDR
A taxonomic revision of Symplocos (Symplocaceae, Ericales, Angiospermae) for the Antilles includes keys, descriptions, distribution maps, and a conservation assessment for each species.
A Revision of Symplocos Jacq. Section Neosymplocos Brand (Symplocaceae)
A taxonomic revision of Symplocos Jacq. section Neosymplocos Brand is provided to replace the outdated 1901 treatment of Brand. A total of 780 specimens and 17 photographic images from 23 herbaria…
Phylogeny and infrageneric classification of Symplocos (Symplocaceae) inferred from DNA sequence data.
TLDR
An inferred eastern Asian origin for Symplocos with subsequent dispersal to the Americas is consistent with patterns from other phylogenetic studies of eastern Asian-American disjunct plant groups but contrary to a North American origin inferred from the earliest fossil occurrences of the genus.
Wood anatomy of Korean Symplocos Jacq. (Symplocaceae)
TLDR
The results of this study indicated that Korean Symplocos are comparatively indistinguishable in terms of their qualitative wood features, except for exclusively uniseriate rays present in S. purnifolia instead of uniseriates to multiseriate in other three species.
Phylogenetic analysis of Asian Symplocos (Symplocaceae) based on nuclear and chloroplast DNA sequences
TLDR
The phylogenetic tree based on combined sequence data largely supports the monophyletic origin of the infrageneric sections proposed earlier, however, the phylogenetic relationship between them is not well resolved, probably due to rapid diversification.
Allozyme diversity and the evolution ofSymplocos (Symplocaceae) on the Bonin (Ogasawara) Islands
TLDR
The three endemics share high genetic identities and they clustered together in the tree drawn by the UPGMA method, suggesting that they are a monophyletic group, that is, they result from a single introduction.
A reconsideration of the diversity of Symplocos in the European Neogene on the basis of fruit morphology
European fossil fruits of Sphenotheca related to extant Asian species of Symplocos
TLDR
The close relationship between this fossil species and extant species of the Symplocos lucida clade of eastern Asia suggests that migration of this group between Europe and Asia was facilitated by the closure of the Turgai Strait that commenced during the Oligocene.
Phylogeny of Symplocos Based on DNA Sequences of the Chloroplast trnC–trnD Intergenic Region
TLDR
The length, organization, and relative sequencing ease of trnC-trnD in Symplocos nonetheless confirm the utility of this region for phylogenetic estimation in flowering plants, as previously described.

The wood anatomical range in Ilex (Aquifoliaceae) and its ecological and phylogenetic significance
TLDR
Comparisons with data from literature and original observations on Prunus, Symplocos, Vaccinium, and to some extent also on Hydrangea support the view that the gradual differences between temperate and tropical Ilex species conform to a general trend also present in other taxa.
Salient Lines of Structural Specialization in the Wood Rays of Dicotyledons
TLDR
Rays of woody dicotyledons may be classified into six salient types, the evolutionary sequence being from the heterogeneous type I, the most primitive, through the transitional heterogeneoustype II and homogeneoustype I, to the highly specialized homogeneous type II rays.
