Diplopanax
''Diplopanax'' is a genus of flowering trees usually placed in the family Cornaceae. Its two known extant species inhabit the wet tropical mountains of Vietnam and southern China. They are broad-leaved evergreen trees with woody fruits and white or yellow flowers.
''Diplopanax'' was originally described from only one species, ''D. stachyanthus'', and placed in the family Araliaceae, but this species was later discovered to be congeneric with ''Mastixicarpum'', a genus of flowering plants known only from fossils and assumed extinct since the Pliocene.〔Eyde, R. H., and Xiang, Q. Y. (1990). Fossil mastixioid (Cornaceae) alive in eastern Asia. ''American Journal of Botany'' 77, 689-692.〕 (This makes ''Mastixicarpum'' an example of a Lazarus genus.) One additional species (''D. vietnamensis'') was subsequently found and described.〔Averyanov, L. V. & Hiep, N. T. (2002). ''D. vietnamensis'', a New Species of Nyssaceae from Vietnam – One More Living Representative of the Tertiary Flora of Eurasia. ''Novon'' 12: 433-436. Available (online (pdf) )〕
Classification of ''Diplopanax'' is inconsistent due to ongoing investigation into its phylogenetic relationships. Although generally placed in Cornaceae, it has also been included in the family Nyssaceae, when that family is removed from Cornaceae. ''Diplopanax'' is also sometimes separated, along with the genus ''Mastixia'', into the family Mastixiaceae.〔Fan, C. Z., and Xiang, Q. Y. (2003). Phylogenetic analyses of Cornales based on 26S rRNA and combined 26S rDNA-matK-rbcL sequence data. ''American Journal of Botany'' 90, 1357-1372.〕
