Talk:Gesneriaceae

It would be good to have some content in the lead para about what differentiates the Gesneriaceae from other (related) families -- e.g. scrophs, bignoniaceae, etc. I'd do it, but I don't have the necessary botanical chops. For comparison, there is a nice definition of the common characters of Lamiales in that article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by RonaldP (talkcontribs) 00:32, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Could be this a place to add subtribes? The following uses the genera in Weber et al (2020) with notes on differences from POWO. —  Jts1882 | talk  14:37, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
