The flavonoids of 11 species from six sections (Geranium, Batrachioides, Lucida, Unguiculata, Robertium, Erodioideae) of the genus Geranium have been studied. Quercetin and its derivatives were the most common aglycones with lesser amounts of kaempferol, myricetin and luteolin. Glycosylation was found mainly in the 3 or 4′ positions and to a lesser extent in the 7 position. Chemosystematic relationships are discussed. The occurrence of exudate flavonoids various methyl ether of kaempferol, quercetin and myricetin has been detected in all the 11 species surveyed.
