Liliales

OverviewAI-generated

Liliales is an order of plants within the kingdom Plantae and phylum Tracheophyta. It belongs to the class Liliopsida, with parent taxa including Lilianae, Liliidae, and Monocots. The taxon was described by Perleb in 1826 and is currently accepted. Its common name is 百合目. The order originated approximately 120 million years ago.

Records indicate that Liliales has a habitat in freshwater environments. Occurrence data includes 3,256,412 records, while PubMed lists 4,350 related entries. Specific records from iDigBio are associated with institutions MO, DBG, and BRIT, located in Ecuador, the United States, and Mexico. The taxon is distinct from Crinoidea.

Liliales is an order of monocotyledonous flowering plants in the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group and Angiosperm Phylogeny Web system, within the lilioid monocots. This order of necessity includes the family Liliaceae. The APG III system (2009) places this order in the monocot clade. In APG III, the family Luzuriagaceae is combined with the family Alstroemeriaceae and the family Petermanniaceae is recognized. Both the order Lililiales and the family Liliaceae have had a widely disputed history, with the circumscription varying greatly from one taxonomist to another. Previous members of this order, which at one stage included most monocots with conspicuous tepals and lacking starch in the endosperm are now distributed over three orders, Liliales, Dioscoreales and Asparagales, using predominantly molecular phylogenetics. The newly delimited Liliales is monophyletic, with ten families. Well known plants from the order include Lilium (lily), tulip, the North American wildflower Trillium, and greenbrier.

Thus circumscribed, this order consists mostly of herbaceous plants, but lianas and shrubs also occur. They are mostly perennial plants, with food storage organs such as corms or rhizomes. The family Corsiaceae is notable for being heterotrophic.
