Hosackia Alamosana
''Hosackia'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Fabaceae (legumes). It is native to western North America, from British Columbia in Canada to Mexico. Taxonomy ''Hosackia'' belongs to a group of species traditionally placed in the tribe Loteae of the subfamily Faboideae. The taxonomy of this group is complex, and its division into genera has varied considerably. Many species of ''Hosackia'' were formerly placed in a broadly defined genus '' Lotus''. A molecular phylogenetic study in 2000 based on nuclear ribosomal ITS sequences confirmed the view that the "New World" (American) and "Old World" (African and Eurasian) species of ''Lotus'' did not belong in the same genus. When narrowly circumscribed, ''Hosackia'' was monophyletic. New World species at one time placed in ''Hosackia'' have been transferred to ''Acmispon'', ''Ottleya'' and ''Syrmatium''. Species , Plants of the World Online accepted the following species: *'' Hosackia alamosana'' Rose *''Hosackia chihuahuana ...
