MAGNOLIIDS

(Redirected from Magnoliid)

The name 'magnoliids' (plural, not capitalized) or 'magnoliid complex' is used by the APG II system (2003) for a clade within the 'angiosperms'. The circumscription is:

★ clade 'magnoliids' :

★ : order Canellales

★ : order Laurales

★ : order Magnoliales

★ : order Piperales
The clade includes most of the basal groups of the angiosperms.
The plants belonging to this clade of magnoliids are roughly those which in the Cronquist system were assigned to the subclass Magnoliidae, which is the basal group of class Magnoliopsida (the Cronquist name for the dicotyledons).
