Asphodelaceae is the botanical name of a family of flowering plants. Plants are living Organisms belonging to the kingdom Plantae. The flowering plants or angiosperms ( Angiospermae or Magnoliophyta) are the most widespread group Liliopsida is a Botanical name for the class containing the family Liliaceae (or Lily Family Asparagales is an order of Flowering plants The order must include the family Asparagaceae, but other families included in the order have varied markedly Antoine Laurent de Jussieu ( April 12, 1748 - September 17, 1836) was a French Botanist, notable as the first to propose A botanical name is a formal scientific name conforming to the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (ICBN and if the plant is a Cultigen, the The flowering plants or angiosperms ( Angiospermae or Magnoliophyta) are the most widespread group Such a family has not been recognized by very many taxonomists and the circumscription of the family has varied.
The APG II system, of 2003, does not recognize this family as such, but allows it to be segregated from the family Xanthorrhoeaceae, as an optional segregate. Xanthorrhoeaceae is the Botanical name of a family of Flowering plants. In as far as APG II accepts this family it is placed in the order Asparagales, in the clade monocots. Asparagales is an order of Flowering plants The order must include the family Asparagaceae, but other families included in the order have varied markedly Monocotyledons or monocots are one of two major groups of Flowering plants (angiosperms that are traditionally recognised the other being Dicotyledons This is a slight change from the APG system, of 1998, which did firmly accept such a family.
According to the AP-website, the family now includes over a dozen genera, totalling some eight hundred species. The best known genus is Aloe (also spelled Aloë). Aloe, also written Aloë, is a Genus containing about four hundred Species of flowering succulent Plants Such a family is native to Africa and the Mediterranean basin to Central Asia, with one genus (Bulbinella) in New Zealand.
