Key to Reseda

A genus of about 55-60 species, herbs, of Europe, Mediterranean region, and c. Asia. Martín-Bravo et al. (2007) show a complex phylogeny of the family, which may result in either the elevation of some components currently included in Reseda to generic rank, or the inclusion in Reseda of allied genera (Kadereit et al. 2016).
