The results of this paper indicate that the earliest diversification of Chrysophylloideae was in the Campanian of Africa. A narrow time interval for colonization from Africa to the Neotropics and Australasia indicates a relatively rapid radiation of this subfamily in the latest Cretaceous to the earliest Palaeocene. Long-distance dispersal between Australia and New Caledonia occurred at least four times, and between Africa and Madagascar on multiple occasions. Long-distance dispersal has been the dominant mechanism for range expansion in the subfamily Chrysophylloideae.
