Juncales
Juncales
Order of flowering plants
Juncales is an order of flowering plants.[1] In the Engler system (update, of 1964) and in the Cronquist system (of 1981, which placed this order in subclass Commelinidae) it is circumscribed as:
- order Juncales
- family Juncaceae
- family Thurniaceae
However, the Thorne system (1992) accepts it as consisting of :
- order Juncales
- family Prioniaceae
- family Thurniaceae
- family Juncaceae
- family Cyperaceae
The APG II system, used here, assigns the plants involved to the order Poales.
