List of Ericaceae genera
This is a list of genera in the plant family Ericaceae, which includes the heaths, heathers, epacrids, and blueberries. As currently circumscribed, the family contains about 4000 species into more than 120 genera classified into 9 subfamilies.[1]
Current understanding
The list shown here follows the phylogenetic classification of Kron et al. (2002),[2] with modifications as per Stevens et al. (2004),[3] Quinn et al. (2005),[4] Albrecht et al. (2010),[5] Gillespie & Kron (2010),[6] and Craven (2011).[7]
Nonetheless, much of the taxonomy within the Vaccinioideae is in flux. Multiple studies of the Gaultherieae have now shown Pernettya, Diplycosia (already including Pernettyopsis), and Tepuia to be nested within Gaultheria,[8][9] although publication formalizing the transfers are yet to be published. Similarly, most of Vaccinieae has not been investigated using molecular techniques, and many genera are likely paraphyletic or polyphyletic. Neotropical and Old World Vaccinioideae are particularly poorly known.[10] Within the Epacrideae preliminary evidence supports the lumping of Budawangia and Rupicola with Epacris,[2] but these genera still stand for the time being.
Relevant recent synonymy include Bruckenthalia with Erica,[11] Leiophyllum and Loiseleuria with Kalmia,[12] and Diplarche and Menziesia with Rhododendron.[7]

Notes
- As unnecessary renamings of species described earlier by Carl Linnaeus, these names are illegitimate and treated respectively as Moneses uniflora (L.) A.Gray, Orthilia secunda (L.) House, and Phyllodoce caerulea (L.) Bab.
- Small's species, which he originally named Pityopus oregona, was later found to be the same as Alice Eastwood's Monotropa californica. It is now treated as Pityopus californius (Eastw.) H.F.Copel.
- Currently treated as a synonym of Comarostaphylis discolor (Hook.) Diggs.
- The name is often attributed to David Don.[29] Although no valid species name were published in the two last volumes of Gmelin's work (which did not use the Linnean binomial system), his genera are considered valid.
- This species' correct name is Bryanthus musciformis (Poir.) Nakai
- Murray et al. (2009)[34] note that there are no recent comprehensive reviews of this genus "where different authors rarely, if ever, arrive at the same conclusion." (Hultén, 1971)[35]
- The correct name of the species is Daboecia cantabrica (Huds.) K.Koch
- As Befaria. The corrected spelling was later conserved.
- John Lindley and Joseph Paxton had originally moved Pallas' Rhododendron camtschaticum to a new genus Rhodothamnus,[41] a name that Reichenbach had already coined for another Ericacea genus.[40] Small elevated Carl Maximowicz' Rhododendron sect. Therorhodion[42] to generic level to replace that name.
- Robert Brown's original Needhamia[46] could not be used because Needhamia Scop.,[52] a rejected synonym of Tephrosia (Fabaceae) antedates it.
- Endlicher substituted this name (as "Lebethanthus") for his own Allodape,[54] which he considered preoccupied by Allodape Lepeletier & Serville 1825,[55] a genus of bees. Since homonymy with zoological name is irrelevant under the ICN (Art. 54.1), preserving the usage of the later name (with corrected spelling) required its conservation.
- Now included within Lebetanthus myrsinites (Lam.) Dusén.
- Sometimes misattributed to Labillardière,[56] but that name is a rejected name against Brown's, and a synonym of Craspedia (Asteraceae:Gnaphalieae).
- Not "R.Br. ex Sweet" or just "Sweet". Brown's Dracophyllum [unranked] Sphenotoma[46] had no rank attached. Although such names cannot affect priority, they can still serve as basionyms so long as they are validly published (ICBN, art. 35).
- Not recorded in ING (Index Nominum Genericorum), but see Paterson (1960)[58]
- Not recorded in ING, but see Weiller (1996)[64]
- ING and IPNI cite both journals but the issue of the Bulletin was not published before late January 1865.[67]
- An illegitimate renaming of Henry Cranke Andrews Styphelia parviflora. The correct name is Leucopogon parviflorus (Andrews) Lindl.
- Not recorded in APNI or ING, but see Crayn et al. (2003)[70]
- This would have to be either Pentachondra involucrata or Pentachondra pumilla.
- The genus' sole species is now known as Zenobia pulverulanta (W.Bartram ex Willd.) Pollard
- This would be either Diplycosia pilosa, D. heterophylla or D. latifolia (≡D. heterophylla var. latifolia).
- Gaudichaud originally spelled the name, which honors Antoine-Joseph Pernety, as "Pernettia". The spelling was later conserved with "y".
- The correct name in Pernettya is Pernettya pumila (L.f.) Hook.. Although the species is known to belong in Gaultheria, it currently lacks a name in that genus (Gaultheria pumila Hook. already exists).
- Although Tepuia species now belong to Gaultheria, this species currently lacks a valid name in the latter genus because of the existence of Gaultheria tatei A.C.Sm..[77]
- Currently treated as a synonym of Craibiodendron stellatum (Pierre) W.W.Sm.
- Authorship, date and proper place of publication of this genus are listed in a number of different, contradictory ways.
- A printing error misstates the year as "1942".
- Hooker also listed the species with the epithet "schomburgkiana".
- This would have to be Rusbya taxifolia, as the other of Britton's original species is currently treated as Demosthenesia pearcei (Britton) A.C.Sm. and its designation as lectotype would replace Demosthenesia with Rusbya.
- Because the name is preceded by Siphonandra Turcz.,[100] it has been proposed for conservation.[101]
- A synonym of Symphysia racemosa (Vahl) Stearn
- A synonym for Themistoclesia dependens (Benth.) A.C.Sm.
- The fourth and fifth volumes of Ruiz and Pavón's Flora Peruviana, et Chilensis were not published during their time, but the plates that were to illustrate volume 4 were circulated and lead to the publication of some names.[105]
- It is not clear whether the correct spelling is "mellifera" or "melliflora".
