Achariaceae:
Achariaceae is a family of flowering plants, formerly consisting of 6 species and 3 genera of herbs and shrubs endemic to southern Africa. The APG II system has greatly expanded the scope of the family by including many genera previously classified in Flacourtiaceae. Molecular data strongly support the inclusion of this family in the order Malpighiales. Embryological development shows similarities with Cucurbitales and Brassicales.
