4105 Aconogonon (Meisn.) Rchb.
- Rchb., Handb. Nat. Pfl.Syst.: 236 (1837) "Aconogonum". - Polygonum sect. Aconogonon Meisn., Monogr. Polyg.: 43, 55 (1826).
- Excluded: Aconogonon alpinum, A. sibiricum.
Notes: Aconogonon is well distinguished from its relatives by pollen type, inflorescence structure, anatomy, and seed anatomy, in addition to general appearance (Hong 1991). A relatively close relative seems to be Koenigia (see also Kim and Donoghue 2008).
