Nothofagus

''Nothofagus'', also known as the southern beeches, is a genus of 36 species of trees and shrubs native to the Southern Hemisphere in southern South America (Chile, Argentina) and Australasia (east and southeast Australia, New Zealand, New Guinea and New Caledonia). The species are ecological dominants in many temperate forests in these regions. Some species are reportedly naturalized in Germany and Great Britain.〔(Kew World Checklist of Selected Plant Families )〕 The genus has a rich fossil record of leaves, cupules and pollen, with fossils extending into the late Cretaceous and occurring in Australia, New Zealand, Antarctica and South America. Fossils have recently been found in Antarctica. __NOTOC__In the past, they were included in the family Fagaceae, but genetic tests by the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group revealed them to be genetically distinct, and they are now included in their own family, the Nothofagaceae (literally meaning "false beeches" or "bastard beeches").
The leaves are toothed or entire, evergreen or deciduous. The fruit is a small, flattened or triangular nut, borne in cupules containing two to seven nuts.
''Nothofagus'' species are used as food plants by the larvae of hepialid moths of the genus ''Aenetus'', including ''A. eximia'' and ''A. virescens''.
Many individual trees are extremely old, and at one time, some populations were thought to be unable to reproduce in present-day conditions at the location where they were growing, except by suckering (clonal reproduction), being remnant forest from a cooler time. Sexual reproduction has since been shown to be possible,〔http://cgi.cse.unsw.edu.au/~lambert/cgi-bin/clim/2005/07/〕 but distribution in cool, isolated, high-altitude environments at temperate and tropical latitudes is consistent with the theory that the genus was more prolific in a cooler age.

It was recently proposed that the generic classification of the Nothofagaceae should be revised, with the four subgenera elevated to full genera.〔Heenan, P.B.; Smissen, R.D. 2013: Revised circumscription of ''Nothofagus'' and recognition of the segregate genera ''Fuscospora'', ''Lophozonia'', and ''Trisyngyne'' (Nothofagaceae). ''Phytotaxa'', 146(1): 1-31. 〕 This proposed change is not taxonomically essential and it remains to be seen if this work will gain wide acceptance.〔
