This is based on Carol Wilson's work, particularly her 2011 paper.
Her clasification of a number of specieas are at odds with other
classifications. Particularity of note, I. siberica, i. setosa, I.
pseudacorous, I. versicolor, I.virginica.

There is a newer, expanded version of that cladogram
here:http://www.rsabg.org/iris/phylogeny
Some of the relationships are fascinating (though perhaps not too
surprising). Nepalensis, evansias and junos are each other's closest
relatives, while the other bulbous species are related to spurias. As
was suggested by Anderson in the '30s, tridentata and virginica are
closely related. The placement of siberica seems unlikely. It's
interesting thatÂcristata/lacustrisÂis the sister group to the rest of
the beardless, andÂI'm surprised Iris verna didn't make it into the
study. The Tenuifoliae are missing as well, but that's less surprising.
Anyone have access to her papers?

Here is a rather confusing but interesting tidbit which you may have
seen already. Not a classification, but related.

Subject: [iris-species] Classification of Iridaceae
 Hi All,
I'm thinking about a presentation for SIGNA on the "other" irids, and
was considering organizing it by tribes within the family. I have
Innes, 1985, who cites Goldblatt, 1971, as the most recent treatment of
the family. Does any one know of a more recent treatment of the
Iridaceae?
