Phylogenetic relationships of the three genera of the family Altingiaceae, i.e.,Altingia,LiquidambarandSemiliquidambar, based onmatK sequences and the intergenic spacer between thepsaA andycf3 genes (PY-IGS) of cpDNA, and on the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) of nrDNA were studied. Phylogenetic trees based on the three data sets (matK, PY-IGS and ITS) were generated usingHamamelis japonicaandMytilaria laosensis(Hamamelidaceae),Cercidiphyllum japonicum(Cercidiphyllaceae), andDaphniphyllum calycinum(Daphniphyllaceae) as outgroups. The partition-homogeneity tests indicated that the three data sets and the combined data are homogeneous. A combined analysis also generated a strongly supported phylogeny. The phylogenetic trees show that the North American and western Asian species,L. styracifluaandL. orientalis, respectively, form a monophyletic group which is sister to the clade including all Asian species in the family. The genusLiquidambaris paraphyletic withAltingiaandSemiliquidambarnested within. Phylogenetic analyses of the molecular data indicate that taxonomic reexamination of the generic delimitation in the Altingiaceae is needed.
