  • Description: <p>Immunochemical investigation of the seed storage proteins of some large genera in the tribe Peucedaneae (Umbelliferae) has clearly demonstrated the heterogeneity of Angelica and Peucedanum and the comparative homogeneity of Ferula. Among the taxa included in Angelica, Ostericum appears to be the most distant from the type species A. sylvestris, and should be treated as an independent genus. On the contrary, Archangelica is serologically similar to Angelica s. str. A rather complicated picture has been revealed within Peucedanum s. 1. Serotaxonomical studies show a relationship pattern largely corresponding to the infrageneric classification of Thellung (1926). The splitting of satellite genera from Peucedanum s. 1. is only partially supported.</p>
