Madagascar as an evolutionary source for the Paleotropical flora: New insights from the biogeography of Grewia (Malvaceae)

The results support a Malagasy origin of the crown group around 27 million years ago, followed by extensive in situ diversification of Grewia, and a new evolutionary framework provides a robust basis for future taxonomic revision of this morphologically and ecologically diverse genus.
