Genera
editThis tribe was created by A. Anderberg (1989) following his reclassification of the Inuleae (Cass.) tribe.[1] It includes the following genera:[2]
Anderberg's molecular data from 2005 does not support the monophyly of a tribe defined in this way. His 2005 classification does not recognize Plucheeae, but includes it in the Inuleae. This classification does include a subtribe Plucheinae in the Inuleae, but this subtribe contains a number of species from the former Inuleae as well as all the species which had been in Plucheeae.[3]
