Abstract Inflorescence structure in the familyAsclepiadaceae, particularly in the subfamilyAsclepiadoideae, is elucidated using the methodology and terminology of the school ofW. Troll. Asclepiadaceae inflorescences are principally thyrsoid systems, with variability resulting from different degrees of reduction of dichasial paracladia to bostryces, sciadioids, and, finally, to single flowers.
