Note: this biogeographic study of Cryptotaenia included members of tribe Scandiceae to reconstruct a phylogeny; the genus Daucus was again solved as polyphyletic; Daucus tenuisectus was resolved at the base of a well supported group including D. muricatus, D. crinitus, D. aureus, Pachyctenium mirabile, Athamanta della-cellae, Pseudorlaya pumila, Pseudorlaya minuscula, D. biseriatus, D. gracilis, D. sahariensis, D. carota, Tornabenea annua, T. tenuissima, and D. syrticus; this whole clade was resolved sister to a Macaronesian clade; the biogeographic analysis using either Bayesian or Neighbor-joining supported Macaronesia as part of an ancestral area for that group, with a dispersal event to Europe-NW Africa, and then back for second time to Macaronesia (Tornabenea)
