Cayratieae

The Cayratieae is one of five tribes of vine plants that are now recognised in this subfamily Vitoideae. It contains genera restored or newly erected from species in the previously configured genus Cayratia, which was found not be monophyletic: (i.e. distinct from Cayratia pedata: the type species of that genus).
