==General Info==
=The ''Mimulus'' Community=
The genus Mimulus (historically "Scrophulariaceae," order Lamiales) has been a [http://www.mimulusevolution.org/ model plant system] for ecological and evolutionary genetics for over 50 years (Vickery, 1951).  Check out the [http://www.isu.edu/~bearpau2/Mimposter.html poster] of the phylogeny of the Mimulus genus.


===Mimulus guttatus===
Become a [[Mimulus membership|member]] today.


The ''Mimulus guttatus'' species complex (yellow monkey flowers) is a group of closely related species exhibiting the common evolutionary transition from outcrossing to self-pollination. ''Mimulus'' presents an excellent model system for studies of evolution because of its broad diversity of floral morphologies, incomplete reproductive barriers, and its amenability to experimental manipulation.
