Hamamelidales
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hamamelidales is the botanical name of an order of flowering plants. The Cronquist system (1981) included the order in subclass Hamamelidae with the circumscription:
- order Hamamelidales
- family Hamamelidaceae
- family Cercidiphyllaceae
- family Eupteleaceae
- family Platanaceae
- family Myrothamnaceae
Molecular systematic studies have suggested that these families are not closely related to each other and the APG II system (2003) assigns them to several different orders: Hamamelidaceae and Cercidiphyllaceae to Saxifragales, Eupteleaceae to Ranunculales, Platanaceae to Proteales, and Myrothamnaceae to Gunnerales.fr:Hamamelidales nl:Hamamelidales pl:Oczarowce
