Abstract
⺠Molecular phylogeny of Rhipsalideae reconstructed with plastid and nuclear markers. ⺠Phylogenetic framework indicates that Hatiora and Schlumbergera are paraphyletic. ⺠A broader Schlumbergera is recognized including Hatiora subg. Rhipsalidopsis. ⺠Consistent morphological characters support clades representing genera. ⺠Nomenclature changes and a key for the identification of genera are provided.
