 | | Comparative studies of development, especially those that apply robust reconstructions of organismal phylogeny, can be used to explore not only the ontogenetic changes that create diversity but also how the patterning of diversity in clades emanates from the succession of ontogenies that compose lineages. |
| | Hydrangeaceae have diversity centered largely in homoplastic shifts between diplostemony and polystemony. |
| | Novelties in the androecium of Hydrangeaceae are limited largely to the formation of filament flanges in the diplostemonous Fendlera and Deutzia and to elaborations that facilitate a substantially higher number of stamens in Carpenteria. |
