Abstract
The familiar limits of Verbenaceae are controversial, ranging from a s ensu late arrangement of seven subfamilies until a sharply defined sen su stricto group consisting of only some genera from subfam. Verbenoid eae. Iridoid contents of genera belonging to Verbenaceae s. 1. were ex amined through a cladistic analysis, using outgroup analysis to evalua te character polarity within the ingroup. The cladogram obtained shows the distribution of the species according to their iridoid content.
