Proteales is the botanical name of an order of flowering plants. Nelumbo is a Genus of aquatic plants with large showy Water lily -like flowers commonly known as Lotus or sacred lotus Platanaceae is a family of Flowering plants. It has been recognized by almost all taxonomists and is sometimes called the "plane-tree family" Proteaceae is a family of Flowering plants. Mainly restricted to the Southern Hemisphere, it is a fairly large family with around 80 genera 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 This article is about the taxonomic rank for the sequence of species in a taxonomic list see Taxonomic order In scientific classification used The flowering plants or angiosperms ( Angiospermae or Magnoliophyta) are the most widespread group Such an order has been recognized by almost all taxonomists.

Families
The APG II system, of 2003, also recognizes this order, and places it in the clade eudicots with this circumscription:
- order Proteales
-
- family Nelumbonaceae
- family Proteaceae [+ family Platanaceae]
with "+ . Eudicots and Eudicotyledons are terms introduced by Doyle & Hotton (1991 to refer to a group of Flowering plants that had been called "tricolpates" or "non-Magnoliid Nelumbo is a Genus of aquatic plants with large showy Water lily -like flowers commonly known as Lotus or sacred lotus Proteaceae is a family of Flowering plants.

Well-known members of Proteales include the proteas of South Africa, the banksias and macadamias of Australia, the London plane, and the sacred lotus.

Classification
This represents a slight change from the APG system, of 1998, which firmly did accept family Platanaceae as separate, using this circumscription of the order:
- order Proteales
-
- family Nelumbonaceae
- family Platanaceae
- family Proteaceae
Cronquist
The Cronquist system, of 1981, recognized such an order and placed it in subclass Rosidae in class Magnoliopsida [=dicotyledons]. A system of plant taxonomy, the Cronquist system is a scheme for the classification of flowering plants (or Angiosperms) Under the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (ICBN Rosidae is a Botanical name at the rank of subclass. Magnoliopsida is the Botanical name for a class of Flowering plants By definition the class will include the family Magnoliaceae, but its It used this circumscription:
- order Proteales
-
- family Elaeagnaceae
- family Proteaceae
Dahlgren & Thorne
The Dahlgren system and Thorne system (1992) recognized such an order and placed it in superorder Proteanae in subclass Magnoliidae [=dicotyledons]. Elaeagnaceae, the oleaster family, is a Plant family of the order Rosales comprising small Trees and Shrubs One of the modern systems of plant taxonomy, the Dahlgren system was published by monocot specialist Rolf Dahlgren. A modern system of plant taxonomy, the Thorne system (1992 of plant classification was drawn up by the botanist Robert F Magnoliidae (or magnoliids) are a group of about 9000 species of Flowering plants including Magnolias Nutmeg, Bay laurel, Cinnamon These systems used this circumscription:
- order Proteales
-
- family Proteaceae
Engler
The Engler system, in its update of 1964, also recognized this order and placed it in subclass Archychlamydeae of class Dicotyledoneae. One of the prime systems of plant taxonomy, the Engler system was devised by Adolf Engler. Dicotyledons, or "dicots", is a name for a group of Flowering plants whose Seed typically has two embryonic leaves or Cotyledons There It used this circumscription:
- order Proteales
-
- family Proteaceae
Wettstein
The Wettstein system, last revised in 1935, also recognized this order and placed it in the Monochlamideae in subclass Choripetalae of class Dicotyledones. A system of plant taxonomy, the Wettstein system recognised the following main groups according to I Dicotyledons, or "dicots", is a name for a group of Flowering plants whose Seed typically has two embryonic leaves or Cotyledons There It used this circumscription:
