The APG II system, of 2003 (unchanged from the APG system, 1998), also recognised such a family, and assigned it to the order Poales in the clade commelinids in the monocots.
The family was regarded as containing three genera, Aphelia, Centrolepis, and Gaimardia,[3] with about 35 species total, found in Australia, New Zealand, southern South America and Southeast Asia.[4]
