Sign in to saveThe Celastrales are an order of flowering plants found throughout the tropics and subtropics, with only a few species extending far into the temperate regions. The 1200 to 1350 species are in about 100 genera. All but seven of these genera are in the large family Celastraceae. Until recently, the composition of the order and its division into families varied greatly from one author to another.
OverviewAI-generated
Celastrales is an order of flowering plants within the kingdom Plantae, phylum Tracheophyta, and class Magnoliopsida. The taxon name was established by Link in 1829, and its status is accepted. Members of this order are primarily woody plants, though some are woody vines or herbs. Their leaves are simple and arranged either alternately or oppositely. Most flowers are bisexual with inferior to perianth positions, and the stamens are arranged opposite the petals. Each ovary chamber contains one to two ovules.
The order has a recorded occurrence count of 1,646,274. Specific records from iDigBio include 260 entries from institutions such as BRIT, MO, and UF, located in Peru, the Philippines, and the United States. WoRMS lists the habitat as brackish. There are 2,713 related entries in PubMed, and the subject is referenced by 835 other encyclopedia articles.
