奇异树马齿苋Eggli是一种马达加斯加藤本植物，被描述为马齿苋科的非典型成员，ndhF序列数据显示，它被置于苋科Celosieae族中，强烈支持Deeringia polysperma的姐妹。Dendroportulaca的形态的重新评估，包括实地观察，也支持其放置在Celosieae，特别是它的关系，现有的马达加斯加种Deeringia。在此将奇异树马齿苋（Dendroportulaca mirabilis）转移至鹿树属（Deeringia）。
Dendroportulaca mirabilis U. Eggli, a Malagasy liana described as an atypical member of Portulacaceae, was shown by ndhF sequence data to be placed within Amaranthaceae tribe Celosieae, strongly supported as sister to Deeringia polysperma. A re-evaluation of the morphology of Dendroportulaca, including field observations, also supported its placement within Celosieae and in particular its relationship to the existing Malagasy species of Deeringia. Dendroportulaca mirabilis is herein transferred to Deeringia.
