''Mascagnia'' is a genus in the Malpighiaceae, a family of about 75 genera of flowering plants in the order Malpighiales. ''Mascagnia'' comprises ca. 45 species that occur from northern Mexico to northern Argentina and southeastern Brazil and in the Caribbean in diverse habitats. ''Mascagnia'' in the traditional sense of was a highly polyphyletic assemblage, a ''form-genus'' based on the lateral-winged samaras. Since the mid-1980s, morphological and molecular studies led to the removal of discordant elements, which were assigned to the genera ''Adelphia'', ''Aenigmatanthera'', ''Alicia'', ''Amorimia'', ''Calcicola'', ''Callaeum'', ''Carolus'', ''Christianella'', ''Malpighiodes'', ''Niedenzuella'', and ''Psychopterys''. In addition, phylogenetic analyses showed that ''Triopterys'' is nested within ''Mascagnia''. The species formerly assigned to ''Triopterys'' were transferred to ''Mascagnia'', which is now a monophyletic genus. The correct name for the species often called ''Mascagnia macroptera'' in the horticulture trade is ''Callaeum macropterum''; the names are not interchangeable. Most of the plants sold in the USA under the names ''Callaeum macropterum'' and ''Mascagnia macroptera'' are actually ''Callaeum septentrionale''. ;Species currently recognized ==References== *Anderson, W.
