ResumoChemical evolution in the Icacinaceae, postulated to involve oxidative sequences within monoterpenoids (iridoids, complex seco-iridoid alkaloids), sesquiterpenoids (emmotins) and diterpenoids (icaceines and humiriantholides), is accompanied by spatial radiation of genera from Melanesia in a western direction along the tropical belt to Amazonia. Presently available chemical data suggest the family to derive from corniflorean stock and to extend into gentianiflorean entourage.
