title: Data from: Phylogenetic relationships of genera Cladocolea and Struthanthus (Loranthaceae) with emphasis on the Mexican species

description: Cladocolea (Loranthaceae) is a neotropical genus currently containing 24
 species. Its taxonomic history included changes in its circumscription as
 the transfers of some of its species to other genera of the family.
 Several phylogenetic studies of Loranthaceae have recognized a close
 relationship between Cladocolea and Struthanthus. However, both genera
 were poorly represented in these studies, so here we generate a phylogeny
 of Mexican species of Cladocolea, Struthanthus, and other genera of
 Psittacanthinae, using nuclear DNA sequences of the ITS region, as well as
 the chloroplast regions matK and trnL-F. One hundred twelve individuals
 were sampled and 12 GenBank sequences were included. We included 23 taxa
 of Cladocolea and 30 species of nine other genera of Loranthaceae. In
 order to estimate ancestral states and character evolution, 13
 morphological characters were mapped, both vegetative and reproductive.
 Bayesian Inference and Maximum Likelihood analyses were performed using
 independent matrices and a concatenated matrix of 2842 characters. Our
 results show that Cladocolea and Struthanthus are both
 polyphyletic genera. However, the Mexican species of Cladocolea and
 Struthanthus with convolute or sigmoid styles form a monophyletic group.
 Finally, the analysis of ancestral character states indicates a trend
 towards a reduction of inflorescences in the Cladocolea-Struthanthus
 complex. New combinations and synonymies are proposed.
