<span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:14px"><span style="font-family:lucida sans unicode,lucida grande,sans-serif">In western North America, six taxa of morphologically similar sessile-flowered <em>Trillium</em> are currently recognized: <em>T.</em><em>angustipetalum</em> (Torr.) J.D. Freeman, <em>T.</em> <em>albidum</em> J.D. Freeman, <em>T.</em> <em>albidum</em> ssp. <em>parviflorum</em> (Soukup) Chambers & Meyers (sometimes elevated to <em>T. parviflorum</em> V.G. Soukup), <em>T.</em> <em>chloropetalum</em> (Torr.) Howell (var. <em>chloropetalum</em> and var. <em>giganteum</em>), and <em>T.</em> <em>kurabayashii</em> J.D. Freeman. Considerable intraspecific variation and overlapping traits among these taxa make them a challenge to distinguish morphologically. Moreover, phylogenetic analyses based on morphological and molecular data attempting to resolve the relationships between these six taxa have not yet provided conclusive results. New approaches using floral scent data for phylogenetic analyses provide a new perspective that can contribute to the understanding of this ambiguous group of plants: (1) Does scent bear phylogenetic signal in <em>Trillium</em>? (2) What is the best way to construct phylogenetic characters based on floral scent data to reflect taxonomic and evolutionary relationships? (3) How do phylogenetic and statistical approaches using floral scent chemistry compare when addressing taxonomic challenges in <em>Trillium</em>?</span></span></span><br>
