Genera

Achariaceae is a family of flowering plants, formerly consisting of 32 genera with 155 species of tropical herbs, shrubs and trees. The APG II system has greatly expanded the scope of the family by including many genera previously classified in Flacourtiaceae. Molecular data strongly support the inclusion of this family in the order Malpighiales. Embryological development shows similarities with Cucurbitales and Brassicales.
