  Arales - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A third family, the Acoraceae, was included under the older Cronquist system but does not appear closely related to the others.
This family is now included in the order Acorales.
The Arales are the sister group of the Alismatales, and are now included among them.

 Acorales
Bremer (2000) suggested that the split between Acorales and other monocots could be dated to ca 134 mybp, a date also used in a more recent and comprehensive analysis that formed the basis for dating the age of monocot groups in general (Janssen and Bremer 2004).
Although a Vorläuferspitze is common, it may be that in the Acorales and Alismatales in particular the blade develops from the upper part of the leaf primordium, i.e., are similar in this to broad-leaved angiosperms, so the "typical" monocot leaf development may be a synapomorphy of a subgroup of the clade.
Colleters may be a synapomorphy of monocots or of independent origin in Acorales and Alismatales, within Araceae, for instance, they seem to be known only from very much embedded genera such as Philodendron, Cryptocoryne and Lagenandra (M. Carlsen, pers.

*Haplostylis* Pax, Sapindaceae, Liliopsida, Acorales, *Pyxidanthera barbulata* Michx., and *Viola pedata* var.
In this manner, names gain hierarchy by proxy, by the arrangement of their taxa: they do not need another set of names (aka, ranks) telling them what order they should be in.
I can later say that because I don't like how Acorales is being used, it's a Class now, rather than an Order, and it's "equivalent" to Liliopsida.

 International Code of Botanical Nomenclature
1853 - Jul 1857), published for a taxon of the rank of order, is not to be accepted as "Acorales Kirschl.", as it has a French rather than a Latin termination.
The name Acorales was later validly published by Reveal (in Phytologia 79: 72.
The terms "divisio" and "phylum", and their equivalents in modern languages, are treated as referring to one and the same rank.

In the past, Petrosaviaceae themselves have been variously assigned, thus Petrosaviaceae s.
Considering the special position of Acoraceae and Petrosaviaceae, we support the taxonomical treatment of Acoraceae and Petrosaviaceae in their own order Acorales and Petrosaviales.

The genus includes only two species species: "A. calamus" (calamus calamus or sweet flag) and "A. gramineus" (Japanese sweet flag Japanese sweet flag or grassy-leaved sweet flag).
This genus was once placed within the Family Araceae Araceae (arums), but more recent phylogenies place it in its own family, Acoraceae, and order, Acorales
