A subtribe is a grouping below a major classification taxon, the family set of taxons. Using an example of taxanomic classification for a species of Orchid, the breakdown of the relevant tiers is plain to see. A taxon (plural taxa) is an element of a taxonomy, e. ...

	The goals are (1) to test the monophyly of Subtribe Artemisiinae and the Artemisia-group; (2) determine the phylogenetic placements of the segregate and allied genera in relation to Artemisia s.s.; and (3) evaluate the patterns of diversification and test biogeographic hypotheses and evolutionary trends in capitular and floral morphology in the Artemisia-group [49,50].
	The closest sister genera to Subtribe Artemisiinae are Nipponanthemum and Leucanthemella (Subtribe Leucantheminae).
	An ITS phylogeny of Subtribe Leucantheminae [71] also excluded these two genera from that subtribe, which is otherwise Mediterranean in distribution, congruent with a chloroplast phylogeny based on ndhF for the entire tribe [64].
