ranunculales

In any case it is in the order Ranunculales.

This family is in the order Ranunculales.

Ranunculales belongs to a paraphyletic group known as the basal eudicots.

The Cronquist circumscription of Ranunculales is now known to be polyphyletic.

Sabiaceae is in a clade of basal eudicots separate from Ranunculales.

By necessity it includes the order Ranunculales, but otherwise it differs between taxonomic systems.

The idea has long persisted that Paeonia belongs in Ranunculales, close to Glaucidium.

The composition of the family has varied, but it has always consisted of Paeonia and one or more genera that are now placed in Ranunculales.

G. Buchheim in Proteales, Cactales, Magnoliales and Ranunculales.

Takhtajan 1997 includes the Ranunculaceae as the only family in the Ranunculales which he placed in a subclass, the Ranunculidae, instead of a superorder.

APG II, in as far as it accepts this family, places it in the order Ranunculales, in the clade eudicots.

The family Ranunculaceae is included in the Ranunculales which is the sole order of the Ranunculanae, a superorder of eudicots according to APG 3 systematics.

The Angiosperm Phylogeny Group recognized seven families in Ranunculales in their APG III system, published in 2009.

Before DNA-molecular classifications, the species placed now in Cucurbitales order, were assigned to orders as diverse as Ranunculales, Malpighiales, Violales, and Rafflesiales.

The fossil is dated to 125 million years old and it not only proves that Ranunculales is an ancient group of eudicots but demonstrates that the whole angiosperm clade may be older than expected.

The APG II system of 2003 (unchanged from the APG system of 1998) recognises the family and places it in the order Ranunculales in the clade eudicots.

-According to Dr John David, (2010) the Ranuculaceae are combined with the Eupteleaceae, Lardizabalaceae, Menispermaceae, Berberidaceae, and Papaveraceae in the Ranunculales, the only order in the superorder Ranunculanae.

Molecular systematic studies have suggested that these families are not closely related to each other and the APG II system (2003) assigns them to several different orders: Hamamelidaceae and Cercidiphyllaceae to Saxifragales, Eupteleaceae to Ranunculales, Platanaceae to Proteales, and Myrothamnaceae to Gunnerales.
