Viscaceae

Wikipedia Abstract

The Viscaceae are a family of flowering plants. In past decades, several systems of plant taxonomy recognized this family, notably the 1981 Cronquist system. In this circumscription, the family includes the several genera of mistletoes. However, the APG II system of 2003 does not recognize the family, treating it as a synonym of Santalaceae. Genera once treated as belonging to family Viscaceae include: \n* Arceuthobium \n* Dendrophthora \n* Ginalloa \n* Korthalsella \n* Notothixos \n* Phoradendron \n* Viscum
