@Dwergenpaartje: - do we have the number of species reported anywhere? Really needs to be in the article.. Also, the phylogeny section needs expanding from that paper, what lineages look separate. I am happy to have a go at this tomorrow (late here now) Cas Liber (talk·contribs) 13:04, 23 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Casliber: - Sorry for not noticing this, you made a typo in the ping template, so it did not occur on my message board. The revision by Grau describes 81 species (and many subspecies), and 4 species have been added since. The last article (this year, F. douglasii) keeps it bit more open, stating: "Felicia Cass. (Asteraceae) is the largest of the African members of tribe Astereae, and comprises ± 90 species from southern and tropical Africa to Arabia." (reference 6).
