属 山柳属Clethra Purdiaea 山柳科也叫桤叶树科包括两属约30余种，主要分布在亚洲和美洲的温带和热带地区，以前的分类认为只有一属，根据基因分析，认为以前划入翅萼树科的Purdiaea属应该属于山柳科。中国只有一属约20余种。 这是一篇與植物相關的小作品。你可以通过编辑或修订扩充其内容。 查 论 编 参考文献 Anderberg, A. A. & Zhang, Z. (2002).

The Clethraceae are a small family of flowering plants in the order Ericales, composed of two genera, Clethra and Purdiaea, with approximately 75 species. They are native to warm temperate to tropical regions of Asia and the Americas, with one species also on Madeira.
In the past, most botanists included only Clethra in the family, but recent research has shown Purdiaea, previously placed in the closely related family Cyrillaceae, is more closely allied to Clethra.
