- Lilianae
"Lilianae" is a
botanical name , in use for a superorder (that is, a rank higher than that of order). Such a superorder will of necessity include the family "Liliaceae " (and usually the order "Liliales "). Terminations at the rank of superorder are not standardized by the "ICBN " and a similar superorder is sometimes called "Liliiflorae ".Among the systems of plant taxonomy that recognise a superorder "Lilianae" is the
Dahlgren system and theThorne system (1992) : both placed it in subclass "Liliidae " [=monocotyledons] of class "Magnoliopsida " [=angiosperms] .
