Abstract

In previous taxonomic literature, the monotypic genus Brossardia Boiss. was suggested to be related to Thlaspi L. s.l. and Aethionema R.Br. ITS sequence data of Brossardia papyracea * were added to a previously published data set, which includes sequences of representative taxa of Aethionema and Thlaspi s.l., to elucidate the systematic position of B. papyracea. Our molecular analysis indicates that B. papyracea is not a member of Aethionema, but is instead, nested within Noccaea Moench, a segregate lineage of the non‐monophyletic Thlaspi s.l. Based on these results and a re‐evaluation of morphological characters, we have transferred B. papyracea to Noccaea: Noccaea papyracea (Boiss.) Khosravi, Mummenhoff & Mohsenzadeh.), comb. nov.
