Based on studies in more than 700 populations of Drosanthemum, the capsule morphology is described, and thirteen fruit types are distinguished. For 66 of the 108 accepted species, coloured figures of the capsules are presented. All names ever published in Drosanthemum are given and D. deciduum is described as a new species, D. subspinosum as a new combination; for many species, lectotypifications are presented.
