Description

There are usually one- or two-year perennial herbaceous plants, rarely subshrubs, shrubs or trees. The often stalked leaves can have very different leaf shapes.

In the basket- shaped inflorescence are often located both tongue and tubular flowers. At the edge of the flower basket is a wreath of tongue-shaped, zygomorphic ray florets, also called ray florets that have three or fewer Kronblattzipfel; in some taxa lacking ray florets. Always are usually radiärsymmetrische or rarely more or less zygomorphe, double lip, tubular flowers available. The five petals are fused into a tube, usually with five or rarely three or four corolla lobes.

In some genera the species flowers baskets from florets and ray florets rand union made ​​(examples: (Rudbeckia ) and sunflower (Helianthus ) ) and form so-called ray florets. Other species have only tubular flowers.

The fruits achenes, in this tribe have never Flight parachutes ( as it exists about the dandelion), often lack the pappus or there are Pappusborsten available.

System

The tribe Heliantheae in 1819 erected by Alexandre Henri Gabriel de Cassini in Journal de Physique, de Chimie et d' Histoire Naturelle des Arts, vol 88, p 189. Type genus is Helianthus L.

The tribe Heliantheae formerly contained about 189-300 genera with 2500-3300 species. Today, only about 112 genera of this tribe are still allocated. The division into subtribe is complicated and has often been revised. In recent years, many of the previous total of 35 Subtribus to own tribe were. Today the tribe Heliantheae is broken down by Panero 2007 in only 14 subtribe:
