List of Ericaceae genera

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]

Relevant recent synonymy include Bruckenthalia with Erica,^[11] Leiophyllum and Loiseleuria with Kalmia,^[12] and Diplarche and Menziesia with Rhododendron.^[7]

121 genera are currently accepted.^[13]
