Asteridae
Asteridae is an obsolete botanical name at the rank of subclass. Composition of the subclass has also varied; however, by definition it always includes the family Asteraceae (Compositae). In the modern APG IV system of classification, asterid and euasterid are names for clades with a composition similar to that of Asteridae.

Asteridae
Asteridae is a clade of plants, known for their flowers. Asteridae has been ranked as a subclass, but this ranking has varied depending on the taxonomy being used. Composition of the clade has also varied, however, by definition it always includes the family Asteraceae. One of the better-known and more influential systems that formally recognized subclass Asteridae was the Cronquist system devised by botanist Arthur Cronquist, which included the orders: ⁕Gentianales ⁕Solanales ⁕Lamiales ⁕Callitrichales ⁕Plantaginales ⁕Scrophulariales ⁕Campanulales ⁕Rubiales ⁕Dipsacales ⁕Calycerales ⁕Asterales Most of the above orders as defined by Cronquist have definitely been dramatically redefined on the basis of recent molecular systematic studies. To a large extent Cronquist's subclass Asteridae corresponds with the older concepts of Sympetalae and Tubiflorae, groups that were defined by having their petals united into a tube. However, these older classifications contained some sympetalous families, such as Cucurbitaceae, that are now known not to be closely related. Cronquist's concept also corresponds closely with the APG II group of euasterids but the APG does not formally recognize a group called "Asteridae".
