An identification key to all accepted genera of Bromeliaceae subfam. and 1 hybrid), or Vriesea (viz., Goudaea: 2 spp., Jagrantia: 1 sp., Lutheria: 4 spp., Stigmatodon: 18 spp., and Zizkaea: 1 spp.). They represent segregates of either Mezobromelia ( Gregbrownia: 4 spp.), Tillandsia (viz., Barfussia: 3 spp., Josemania: 5 spp., Lemeltonia: 7 spp., Pseudalcantarea: 3 spp., and Wallisia: 4 spp. Several new genera are established to render taxonomic units monophyletic and morphologically well circumscribed. In addition, the two new subtribes Cipuropsidinae and Vrieseinae are proposed within tribe Vrieseeae. The four tribes proposed earlier are mostly confirmed, but Catopsideae replaces the formerly used name Pogospermeae for the monotypic tribe of Catopsis. One new stigma type and several subtypes of previously described stigmas were found. Stigma morphology has proven to be indicative for super-specific taxa in Tillandsioideae. This enables the circumscription of monophyletic units using synapomorphic combinations of diagnostic morphological characters. Tillandsioideae is presented based on a multi-locus DNA sequence phylogeny (viz., plastid DNA loci rpoB- trnC- petN, trnK- matK- trnK, and ycf1, and the nuclear DNA gene PHYC) and new or re-evaluated morphology (e.g., leaf, inflorescence, sepal, petal, ovary, stigma, stamen, pollen, ovule, and seed morphology).
