Abstract
On the basis of recent multidisciplinary (including DNA-analytical)
studies, the fusion of the genera Otanthus and Leucocyclus
with Achillea is proposed. A taxonomic and
nomenclatural survey of the genus includes amendments in the
circumscription of all accepted sections and new combinations for A.
sect. Otanthus, A. maritima, A. maritima subsp. atlantica
and A. formosa subsp. amanica.
