Myodocarpaceae
Myodocarpaceae is a family of flowering plants which contains 2 genera (''Delarbrea'', ''Myodocarpus'') and 15 species. The family is accepted under the APG IV system and placed in the order Apiales. In earlier systems the two genera were included among the Araliaceae. The center of diversity of the family is New Caledonia, where 13 of the 15 included species are Endemism, endemic. Of the remaining two species, ''Delarbrea paradoxa'' subsp. ''paradoxa'' is found in the Lesser Sunda Islands, Maluku Islands, New Guinea, the Solomon Islands (archipelago) and Vanuatu as well as New Caledonia, while ''Delarbrea michieana'' is endemic to Australia. Plants in the family are small trees which either have a single trunk or are lightly branched. References

Apiales
The Apiales are an order of flowering plants, included in the asterid group of dicotyledons. Well-known members of Apiales include carrots, celery, coriander, parsley, parsnips, poison hemlock, ginseng, ivies, and pittosporums. Apiales consist of nine families, with the type family being the celery, carrot or parsley family, Apiaceae. Taxonomy There are nine accepted families within the Apiales, though there is some slight variation and in particular, the Torriceliaceae may also be divided. * Apiaceae (carrot family) * Araliaceae (ginseng family) * Griseliniaceae * Myodocarpaceae * Pennantiaceae * Pittosporaceae * Torricelliaceae The present understanding of the Apiales is fairly recent and is based upon comparison of DNA sequences by phylogenetic methods. The circumscriptions of some of the families have changed. In 2009, one of the subfamilies of Araliaceae was shown to be polyphyletic. The order Apiales is placed within the asterid group of eudicots as circumscribed ...

APG IV System
The APG IV system of flowering plant classification is the fourth version of a modern, mostly molecular-based, system of plant taxonomy for flowering plants (angiosperms) being developed by the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (APG). It was published in 2016, seven years after its predecessor the APG III system was published in 2009, and 18 years after the first APG system was published in 1998. In 2009, a linear arrangement of the system was published separately; the APG IV paper includes such an arrangement, cross-referenced to the 2009 one. Compared to the APG III system, the APG IV system recognizes five new orders ( Boraginales, Dilleniales, Icacinales, Metteniusales and Vahliales), along with some new families, making a total of 64 angiosperm orders and 416 families. In general, the authors describe their philosophy as "conservative", based on making changes from APG III only where "a well-supported need" has been demonstrated. This has sometimes resulted in placements th ...

Plants Of The World Online
Plants of the World Online (POWO) is an online taxonomic database published by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. History Following the Convention on Biological Diversity, the Royal Botanic Gardens in Kew launched Plants of the World Online in March 2017 with the goal of creating an exhaustive online database of all seed-bearing plants worldwide. (Govaerts wrongly speaks of "Convention for Botanical Diversity (CBD)). The initial focus was on tropical African flora, particularly flora ''Zambesiaca'', flora of West and East Tropical Africa. Since March 2024, the website has displayed AI-generated predictions of the extinction risk for each plant. Description The database uses the same taxonomical source as the International Plant Names Index, which is the World Checklist of Vascular Plants (WCVP). The database contains information on the world's flora gathered from 250 years of botanical research. It aims to make available data from projects that no longer have an online ...
