Icacinaceae
The Icacinaceae, also called the white pear family, are a family (biology), family of flowering plants,"Icacinaceae" At: Angiosperm Phylogeny Website At: Missouri Botanical Garden Website (see ''External links'' below). consisting of trees, shrubs, and lianas, primarily of the tropics. The family was traditionally Circumscription (taxonomy), circumscribed quite broadly, with around 55 genera totalling over 400 species. In 2001, though, this circumscription was found to be polyphyletic, and the family was split into four families in three different Order (biology), orders: Icacinaceae ''sensu stricto'' (then unplaced at order rank), Pennantiaceae (Apiales), Stemonuraceae (Aquifoliales) and Cardiopteridaceae (also Aquifoliales). Other genera have later been moved to Metteniusaceae (Metteniusales),Stull, G. W., R. Duno de Stefano, D. E. Soltis, and P. S. Soltis (2015).

Cardiopteridaceae is a eudicot Family (biology), family of flowering plants.

Brummitt, Ole Seberg, and Alastair Culham. ''Flowering Plant Families of the World''. Firefly Books: Ontario, Canada. (2007). .

Pennantiaceae
''Pennantia'' is the sole genus in the plant family Pennantiaceae. In older classifications, it was placed in the family Icacinaceae. Most authorities have recognised three or four species, depending on whether they recognised '' Pennantia baylisiana'' as a separate species from '' Pennantia endlicheri''. British-born botanist David Mabberley has recognised two species. The species are small to medium, sometimes multi-trunked trees. Leaves are alternate, leathery, and with entire or sometimes toothed margins. Inflorescences are terminal and flowers are functionally unisexual; the species are more or less dioecious. ''Pennantia'' species grow naturally in New Zealand, Norfolk Island, and eastern Australia. In Australia, '' P. cunninghamii'' grows across a broad latitudinal natural range (nearly ), from the south coast of New South Wales northwards through to north eastern Queensland. The genus name, ''Pennantia'', is in honor of Thomas Pennant, an 18th century Welsh zoologist a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Metteniusaceae are a family of flowering plants, the only family in the order Metteniusales. It consists of about 10 genera and 50 species of trees, shrubs, and lianas, primarily of the tropics.

Aquifoliales
The Aquifoliales are an order of flowering plants, including the Aquifoliaceae (holly) family, and also the Helwingiaceae (2-5 species of temperate Asian shrubs) and the Phyllonomaceae (4 species of Central American trees and shrubs). In 2001, the families Stemonuraceae and Cardiopteridaceae were added to this order. This circumscription of Aquifoliales was recognized by the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group when they published the APG II system in 2003.

It was developed by Arthur Cronquist in a series of monographs and texts, including ''The Evolution and Classification of ..., there is no Aquifoliales order: the Aquifoliaceae are placed within the order Celastrales and the others are in other families.
