The following species in the flowering plant genus Clematis are accepted by Plants of the World Online. [1] Although the genus is currently most diverse in warm temperate regions and mountainous habitats, molecular evidence suggests that this is of recent origin, and earlier diversification occurred in more tropical climes.
