We conducted a phylogenetic analysis of Minuria and related genera and found that Elachanthus, Isoetopsis, and Kippistia phylogenetically nested in Minuria. Before 1980, Kippistia had long been considered part of Minuria. Morphological examination showed many similarities between Eleachanthus, Isoetopsis, and annual species of Minuria. We publish new combinations for four species, synonymising the three smaller genera. (Image credit: Alexander Schmidt-Lebuhn.)
