Note: This is a view of Crassulaceae s.l. (Hassler et al., 2019 & Thiede & Eggli, 2007) c.f. Govaerts et al. (2019) for an opinion of Crassulaceae s.s. with fewer segregates from Sedum. Differences of opinion involve the highly paraphyletic nature of the species rich Sedum, which can make generic circumscriptions difficult particularly in Sedeae, Klein in Kadereit et al. (2016) presents a synopsis. There is little consensus so WS must maintain a conservative approach until the situation becomes clearer.
