Everything about Petrosaviaceae totally explained
Petrosaviaceae is the
botanical name of a
family of
flowering plants. Such a family has been recognized by only few taxonomists: the plants involved were usually treated as belonging to the family
Liliaceae.
The
APG II system, of 2003, does recognize this family and assigns it to the clade
monocots, unplaced as to order. This family then consists of two genera
Japonolirion and
Petrosavia. In circumscribing the family in this way, APG II departs from the
APG system, of 1998, which treated each of these genera as constituting its own family.
Japonolirion is taken to consist of one species and
Petrosavia of three species. The plants in both genera are found in high-elevation habitats and have bracteate racemes, pedicellate flowers, six persistent tepals, septal nectaries, three nearly distinct carpels, simultaneous microsporogenesis, monosulcate pollen, and follicular fruits.
