Abstract
⺠Six clades retrieved: Acacia, Acaciella, Ingeae, Mariosousa, Senegalia and Vachellia. ⺠Mimosoideae originated in the Paleocene (55 million years ago) preceding numerous dispersals. ⺠Adaptations to open habitats occurred during the Miocene. ⺠Increasing aridity and fire climates probably led to the decrease of the forest cover.
