Taxonavigation: Santalales 
Classification System: APG IV

Superregnum: Eukaryota
Regnum: Plantae
Cladus: Angiosperms
Cladus: Eudicots
Cladus: Core eudicots
Ordo: Santalales

Familia: Balanophoraceae
Genera: Balanophora Chlamydophytum Corynaea Dactylanthus Ditepalanthus Exorhopala Hachettea Helosis Langsdorffia Lathrophytum Lophophytum Mystropetalon Ombrophytum Rhopalocnemis Sarcophyte Scybalium Thonningia

Name

Balanophoraceae L.C. & A. Rich. Mém. Mus. Hist. Nat. 8: 429. (1822) nom. cons.

Synonyms

  • Heterotypic
    • Mystropetalaceae (Engl.) Takht., Bot. Zhurn. (Moscow & Leningrad) 75(5): 698. (1990)

Note: Su et al. (2015) prefer to segregate Dactylanthus, Hachettea and Mystropetalon into Mystropetalaceae, but this has not gained wider acceptance and so a conservative position is adopted here.
