The Angiosperm Phylogeny Group 2016 | 12 [15]. *Aristolochiaceae Juss., nom. cons. (including Asaraceae Vent., Hydnoraceae C.Agardh, nom. cons., Lactoridaceae Engl., nom. cons.)
There are no alterations among the ANA grade or the magnoliid families and orders, except for inclusion of Hydnoraceae and Lactoridaceae in Aristolochiaceae due to paraphyly of the last (Massoni, Forest & Sauquet, 2014). It has been known that Lactoris Phil. was embedded in Aristolochiaceae (Qiu et al., 2005; Wanke et al., 2007), but this placement was considered by some to be an artefact due to a long-branch problem. No study has yet supported this hypothesis, so it seems appropriate to make this change in circumscription. Hydnoraceae have also recently been shown to be nested in Aristolochiaceae (Naumann et al., 2013; Massoni et al., 2014). |
