Note: There are differences in the circumscription of this family, Olmstead et al.(2016) and Tropicos (2014) compared to Fischer et al. (2013). This page largely follows Olmstead et al. (2016) in order to maintain consistency in the Lamiales, but has incorporated minor genera not covered in their analysis. However, this circumscription could change when further evidence is available.
