Angelica Linnaeus. Common name: Angelica.

Key to Angelica

A genus of about 120 species, perennial herbs of the northern hemisphere. Recent analyses, such as those by Liao et al. (2013, 2021), suggest that Angelica may be divided in the future, with North American species perhaps placed in a new genus. Clade indicated are those of Liao et al. (2013, 2021).
