laurales

They are a family of angiosperms in order Laurales.

The Laurales are an order of flowering plants.

Indeed, presently no single morphological property is known, which would unify all the members of Laurales.

Calycanthus (sweetshrub, spicebush) is in a different family within the Laurales.

They belong to an ancient isolated Gondwanian element of Laurales.

The Lauraceae or Laurel family comprises a group of flowering plants included in the order Laurales.

Under the older Cronquist system, the Laurales included a slightly different set of families (current placement, where different, in brackets):

During some or all of the 20th century, the Laurales generally included Amborella and the plants now classified in Austrobaileyales and Chloranthaceae.

Actinodaphne is an Asian genus of the family Lauraceae, Laurel bay related, that comprises a group of flowering plants within the order Laurales.

In addition to palms and legumes, much of the biomass of the Paleocene forest consisted of laurales, malvales, menisperms, aroids, and zingiberaleans.

More recently, the group has been redefined under the PhyloCode as a node-based clade comprising the Canellales, Laurales, Magnoliales, and Piperales.

They were not removed until the advent of molecular data in the late 20th century; their previous inclusion made it harder to determine the relationships within the Laurales and between the Laurales and other groups.

The APW (Angiosperm Phylogeny Website) considers them to be a family of their own (as the Atherospermataceae), and together with the Gomortegaceae and Siparunaceae they form a distinct branch of the Laurales.

It is the sole species of the genus Gomortega and, according to the APG II system of 2003 (unchanged from the APG system of 1998), of the monotypic family Gomortegaceae, assigned to the order Laurales in the clade magnoliids.

One of the common names of C. secundiflora is Texas Mountain Laurel, although the name Mountain Laurel also refers to the very dissimilar and unrelated genus Kalmia (family Ericaceae) and the name laurel refers generally to plants in the unrelated order Laurales.
