Dilleniaceae (from the genus Dillenia, in honor of John James Dillenius, a professor of botany at Oxford). Dillenia Family. Fig. 37. Trees or shrubs, often climbing: leaves alternate, very rarely opposite: flowers bisexual, regular, hypogynous; sepals 5, rarely more or fewer, imbricated, persistent; petals 5 or fewer, imbricated, deciduous; stamens numerous, often very numerous, free or united in groups, anthers opening by slits or pores; carpels several, usually distinct, but often united; ovules numerous: fruit a follicle, or a berry or a capsule, or inclosed in a fleshy calyx, which simulates a berry; seed albuminous, usually with an aril.

The flowers of many species are very beautiful, but few forms are in cultivation. In this country the only one apparently is Dillenia indica, a large magnolia-ike tree with flowers 9 inches in diameter, grown in southern California and in Florida.

By recent authors (Gilg, in Engler and Prantl), Actinidia, a genus of vines from eastern Asia, has been placed in this family, although formerly included in the Theaceae. A few species of Actinidia are in the American trade.

'''Dilleniaceae''' is the [[botanical name]] for a [[family (biology)|family]] of [[flowering plants]]. Such a family has been universally recognized by taxonomists.  It is known to gardeners for the genus ''[[Hibbertia]]'', which contains many commercially valuable garden species.
+
==Genera==
   −
The family consists of about a dozen genera, of a few hundred species, found in the tropics and sub-tropics plus entire [[Australia]]. The species are mostly woody plants, but range from herbaceous plants up to large trees.

The [[APG II system]], of 2003 (unchanged from the [[APG system]], of 1998), also recognizes this family, unplaced as to order, assigned to the clade [[core eudicots]].

APG II debates either including it in order [[Caryophyllales]] or reinstating the order [[Dilleniales]] for just this one family, but decides to leave it unplaced.
