The genus was originally placed in family Loganiaceae[3] but has since been variously placed in Scrophulariaceae,[4] Gesneriaceae[5] and Buddlejaceae.[6] As of 2016 it is considered to be the sister genus to the family Gesneriaceae as previously defined, and the family was tentatively enlarged to include the genus, pending a revision of the families included in Lamiales.[7] It has been placed as the only genus in the monotypic subfamily Sanangoideae.[1]
