The [tribe](/source/Tribe_(biology)) **Ormosieae** is one of the subdivisions of the plant [family](/source/Family_(taxonomy)) [Fabaceae](/source/Fabaceae), primarily found in tropical regions of the [Americas](/source/Americas), but also in southeast [Asia](/source/Asia) and northern [Australia](/source/Australia).[2][3] The members of this tribe were formerly included in tribe [Sophoreae](/source/Sophoreae),[4] but were recently [circumscribed](/source/Circumscription_(taxonomy)) into a new tribe.[1][2][5] The members of this tribe consistently form a [monophyletic clade](/source/Monophyly) in [molecular phylogenetic analyses](/source/Molecular_phylogenetics).[2][6][7][8][9][10][11] The tribe does not currently have a node-based definition, but morphological [synapomorphies](/source/Synapomorphy) have been tentatively identified: "mostly dehiscent pods with woody valves"[2] and "tufts of minute colleter-like glands in the axils of bract and bracteoles".[2] Like other genistoids, members of tribe Ormosieae are known to produce [quinolizidine](/source/Quinolizidine) alkaloids.[12]
