Anthyllis is one of the most morphologically diversed genera of the tribe Loteae with center of diversity in the Mediterranean region. Molecular phylogeny of Anthyllis strongly supported monophyly of the genus. In this study, a new morphology-based cladistic analysis of Anthyllis is presented and the obtained tree topologies are compared with authorsЈ molecular phylogenetic data (Degt- jareva et al. 2009). Out of the 21 species of Anthyllis, 20 species are included in the present analysis. As outgroup, the monotypic genus Antopetitia is used. The data matrix contains 53 parsimony informative characters. Cladistic anal- ysis revealed many shortest trees (131 steps), the strict consensus tree was not completely resolved and most nodes in the trees had low bootstrap support. Still, ¦ve nodes had bootstrap support exceeding 50% and three nodes had sup- port exceeding 90%. Many aspects of morphology-based trees are congruent with molecular-phylogenetic analyses, including monophyly of subgenera Cor- nicina, Anthyllis, and Terni§ora. Most molecular-phylogenetic trees as well as the present morphological analyses show paraphyly of subgenus Barba-Jovis, with subgenera Terni§ora embedded into it. However, maximum parsimony (MP) analysis of nrITS data set does not contradict the idea on monophyly of subgen. Barba-Jovis. The present data support the view that unusual topologies found in MP analyses of nrITS data are likely due to long-branch attraction. Unexpected grouping of Anthyllis montana with A. henoniana and A. lagascana found in molecular analyses is not rejected by the present study.
