Nymphaeales
Cabombaceae - fanworts
Nymphaeaceae - water lilies
The Nymphaeales are an order of flowering plants, including two families of aquatic herbs: - Family Nymphaeaceae (waterlily family)
- Family Cabombaceae (fanwort family)
Sometimes the Cabombaceae are included within the Nymphaeaceae. The older Cronquist system also included the following familes: The Nymphaeales, taken in the narrower sense, appear to have diverged from the other flowers very early on, representing a basal clade offshoot to the flowering plants.
