The Aptandraceae is a family of flowering plants in the sandalwood order Santalales that is recognized by some sources; others sink the family in Olacaceae. The members of the tropical plant family are parasitic on other plants, usually on the roots, and grow as trees, shrubs or woody lianas.[2][3][4][5]
The genera of the family have long been recognized by taxonomists as forming a clade (van Tieghem (1896), Pierre (1897), and Gagnepain (1910)), but have usually been placed in the family Olacaceae.[6] In the APG III and APG IV systems, it was accepted that the Olacaceae sensu lato were paraphyletic but new family limits were not proposed as relationships were considered uncertain.[7][8] Subsequently, some sources have accepted the division of Olacaceae into six families, including Aptandraceae.[1] Others continue to use a broad circumscription of Olacaceae.[9]
Genera
(As of July 2021), eight genera were placed in this family by the Angiosperm Phylogeny Website.[1] (As of July 2021), Plants of the World Online placed all the genera in Olacaceae.[9]
