--><p>Erythranthe includes the mostly western American and Asian species with axile placentation and pedicels distinctly longer than the calyces; these were formerly treated within Mimulus in the broad sense. The species of Erythranthe have been divided into 12 sections (W. R. Barker et al. 2012), closely corresponding to the cladistic patterns in the molecular-based phylogenetic analysis by P. M. Beardsley et al. (2004): sect. Achlyopitheca G. L. Nesom & N. S. Fraga (species 1–3), sect. Paradantha (A. L. Grant) G. L. Nesom & N. S. Fraga (species 4–19), sect. Monantha G. L. Nesom & N. S. Fraga (species 20, 21), sect. Monimanthe (Pennell) G. L. Nesom & N. S. Fraga (species 22–24), sect. Erythranthe (species 25–31), sect. Alsinimimulus G. L. Nesom & N. S. Fraga (species 32), sect. Simigemma G. L. Nesom & N. S. Fraga (species 33), sect. Mimulosma G. L. Nesom & N. S. Fraga (species 34–51), sect. Mimulasia G. L. Nesom & N. S. Fraga (species 52), sect. Exigua G. L. Nesom & N. S. Fraga (species 53), and sect. Simiolus (Greene) G. L. Nesom & N. S. Fraga (species 54–86).</p><!--
--><p>Recent taxonomic studies have clarified species definitions, and to some extent relationships, in sect. Achlyopitheca (G. L. Nesom 2012g), sect. Erythranthe (P. M. Beardsley et al. 2003), sect. Mimulosma (M. L. Carlson 2002; J. B. Whittall et al. 2006; Nesom 2012h), sect. Simiolus (G. R. Campbell 1950; Nesom 2012i), and sect. Paradantha (N. S. Fraga 2012). A secondary radiation of species has occurred in Andean South America; C. von Bohlen (1995) studied the Chilean species. A taxonomic summary of the primarily Central American genera Hemichaena Bentham and Leucocarpus D. Don, which are closely related to Diplacus and Erythranthe, respectively, was provided by Nesom (2011d).</p><!--
--><p>A revision of Mimulus in the broad sense was provided by A. L. Grant (1924), followed by a major update and overview by F. W. Pennell (1951) that covered the majority of the western North American species of Erythranthe. A floristic treatment of Mimulus in the broad sense for California by D. M. Thompson (1993) recognized fewer species of Erythranthe than did Pennell, especially in sects. Achlyopitheca, Mimulosma, and Simiolus. The present treatment is more similar to that by Pennell.</p><!--
--><p>A number of the species of Erythranthe currently serve as experimental organisms for various laboratories studying the genetic and genomic basis of adaptation and speciation (M. R. Dudash et al. 2005; C. A. Wu et al. 2008), and sect. Simiolus was the object of intensive investigation from about 1950 until the 1990s by R. K. Vickery and his students, who made hundreds of chromosome counts and interspecific and infraspecific crosses and from those data drew corresponding inferences about isolating mechanisms. Most studies have centered on E. guttata and close relatives (sect. Simiolus), and E. cardinalis and close relatives (sect. Erythranthe), focusing on mating system evolution, reproductive isolation, hybridization and hybrid incompatibility, genetic architecture of floral traits, corolla morphology and pollination, inbreeding phenomena, and epistasis.</p><!--
--><p>The relative position of stigma and anthers is indicated in the descriptions by the terms herkogamous (stigma distinctly above the level of the anthers) and plesiogamous (stigma and anthers in essentially the same level). Herkogamous corollas are generally assumed to be outcrossing except in the relatively smaller corollas where, even if herkogamous, crowding of the stigma and anthers may facilitate occasional autogamy.</p>
