Name

Dipterocarpaceae Blume Bijdr. Fl. Ned. Ind. 222. (1825) nom. cons.

• Type genus: Dipterocarpus  Gaertn. Suppl. Carp. 50. (1805)
  

Note: Transferred Pakaraimaea to Cistaceae sensu APG, 2016 & Ducousso et al., 2004. In addition, Applequist (2012) reports that "It is recommended that with respect to names of genera and species E. Delpy’s entire series of illustrations of West African trees be added to the list of suppressed works in Appendix VI." This means that Marquesia is legitimate and Trillesanthus is reduced to synonymy.
