The tribe Podalyrieae is one of the subdivisions of the plant family Fabaceae.
Description
The Podalyrieae arose 30.5 ± 2.6 million years ago (in the Oligocene) in the fynbos (Cape Floristic Region) of South Africa and is still mostly found there.{{cite journal |author1=Boatwright JS |author2=Savolainen V |author3=Van Wyk B-E |author4=Schutte-Vlok AL |author5=Forest F |author6=Van der Bank M | year = 2008 | title = Systematic position of the anomalous genus Cadia and the phylogeny of the tribe Podalyrieae (Fabaceae) | journal = Syst Bot | volume = 33 | issue = 1 | pages = 133–147 | doi = 10.1600/036364408783887500 }}{{cite journal | author = Linder HP | year = 2003 | title = The radiation of the Cape flora, southern Africa | journal = Biol Rev Camb Philos Soc | volume = 78 | issue = 4 | pages = 597–638 | pmid = 14700393 | doi = 10.1017/S1464793103006171 }} All members of the tribe exhibit either nonsprouting or sprouting fire survival strategies.{{cite journal |vauthors=Schutte AL, Vlok JH, Van Wyk BE | year = 1995 | title = Fire-survival strategy—a character of taxonomic, ecological and evolutionary importance in fynbos legumes | journal = Pl Syst Evol | volume = 195 | issue = 3–4 | pages = 243–259 | doi = 10.1007/BF00989299 | bibcode = 1995PSyEv.195..243S }} Many species are pollinated by insects, especially carpenter bees, while others are pollinated by sunbirds or rodents.
