Commelinidae

Commelinidae

Commelinidae is a botanical name at the rank of subclass. Circumscription of the subclass will vary with the taxonomic system being used (there are many such systems); the only requirement being that it includes the family Commelinaceae. A well-known system that did use this name is the Cronquist system (1981), but it was also used by the Takhtajan system:

APG system

The APG II system does not use formal botanical names above the rank of order; most of the plants involved here are assigned to the clade commelinids in the monocots (its predecessor, the APG system knew the clade commelinoids).[1][2][3]
