How can Berberidopsidaceae be an 'unplaced' family

[edit]

when below you also have the order Berberidopsidiales? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.68.94.86 (talk) 16:45, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Very good question. The answer seems to be that the cladogram at the top of Eudicots#Subdivisions is based on the APG III system, whereas the list below is based on the APG II system. Clearly this needs to be fixed. Peter coxhead (talk) 21:27, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!

Move undone

[edit]

Some time ago, the page was moved from "Eudicots" to "Eudicotyledon".

  • No consensus was established for the move; this should have been raised here and at WT:PLANTS.
  • The term used in the APG system, the basis of flowering plant classification in the English Wikipedia, is "eudicots".
  • Google searches, for what they are worth, show about 8,900 hits for "eudicotyledon" and 1,190,000 for "eudicots", so the WP:COMMONNAME is clearly "eudicots".

I've undone the move. Restoring it requires consensus first. Peter coxhead (talk) 14:17, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
