Wikipedia

  1. Taxodiaceae

    Taxodiaceae is a formerly recognized coniferous plant family comprising the following ten genera: Athrotaxis Cryptomeria Cunninghamia †Cunninghamites Glyptostrobus Metasequoia Sciadopitys Sequoia Sequoiadendron †Sequoioxylon Taiwania TaxodiumHowever, research has shown that the Taxodiaceae genera, with the exception of Sciadopitys, are phylogenetically part of the family Cupressaceae. There are no consistent characters by which they can be separated, and genetic evidence demonstrates close relationships. The one exception, the genus Sciadopitys, is genetically very distinct from all other conifers, and now treated in a family of its own, Sciadopityaceae.

  1. taxodiaceae

    Taxodiaceae is a family of coniferous trees, typically evergreens, which includes the genera Sequoia, Taxodium, and Cryptomeria among others. These trees are most commonly found in the Northern Hemisphere, particularly in North America and East Asia, and are known for their reddish-brown or yellowish-brown timber. Traditional classification systems place them in the order Coniferales, but modern classifications tend to place them in the family Cupressaceae.

  1. Taxodiaceae

    The Taxodiaceae were at one time regarded as a distinct plant family comprising the following ten genera of coniferous trees: ⁕Athrotaxis ⁕Cryptomeria ⁕Cunninghamia ⁕†Cunninghamites ⁕Glyptostrobus ⁕Metasequoia ⁕Sciadopitys ⁕Sequoia ⁕Sequoiadendron ⁕Taiwania ⁕Taxodium However, recent research has shown that the Taxodiaceae, with the single exception of Sciadopitys, should be merged into the family Cupressaceae. There are no consistent characters by which they can be separated, and genetic evidence demonstrates close relationships; this merging is now becoming widely accepted. The one exception, the genus Sciadopitys, is genetically very distinct from all other conifers, and now treated in a family of its own, Sciadopityaceae. As proposed, genera of the former Taxodiaceae are grouped in the following subfamilies within the larger Cupressaceae: ⁕Athrotaxidoideae Quinn ⁕Cunninghamioideae Quinn ⁕Sequoioideae Quinn ⁕Taiwanioideae Quinn ⁕Taxodioideae Endl. ex K. Koch
