Abstract
Evaluation of the phenolic constituents of five species belonging to t he subtribe Leontodontinae (family Asteraceae) allowed the identificat ion of ten flavonoids and eight phenolic acids by means of HPLC and ot her standard methods. The role of these compounds in relation to the m orphological characteristics in the systematics of the subtribe is dis cussed.
