	Bromeliflorae
		The Bromeliflorae, as here treated, are a group of monocots comprising two families: the Bromeliaceae with 45 genera and about 2000 species, and the Rapateaceae with 16 genera and 80-100 species.
		Some of the large terrestrial bromeliads, believed to be closely related to the first bromeliads, look very much like agaves or grasses, and may be mistaken for those groups by the inexperienced.
		There are three subfamilies of Bromeliaceae: Pitcairnoideae (terrestrial, often with spiny leaves), Bromelioideae (terrestrial or epiphytic, "tank" bromeliads, with an inferior ovary), and Tillandsioideae (epiphytes, including Vriesia and Spanish "moss").

	Poales
		The general pattern of movement of genes from the mitochondrion to the nucleus is interesting; it suggests that Bromeliaceae and Typhaceae (of the taxa sampled) are sister to other Poales (Adams and Palmer 2003), and of course Bromeliaceae have septal nectaries, alone in the clade.
		Bromeliaceae, Sparganiaceae and Typhaceae are often basal branches with respect to other clades in Poales (e.g.
		Bromeliaceae are often rosette plants, the leaves always being spirally arranged, lacking a distinct sheath, and often with spiny-toothed margins; the indumentum is lepidote; and the terminal inflorescence is prominently bracteate.

		It would be desirable that generic names in the Bromeliaceae honoring Édouard Morren, Johann Georg Beer, and Karl Koch be established to recognize the significant contributions each has made to the taxonomy of the family.
		Smith was the world authority on the taxonomy of the Bromeliaceae from roughly 1930-1986, and was a specialist of the Begoniaceae, Velloziaceae, and Xyridaceae.
		He was the author of Bromeliaceae treatments in Flora of Peru (1936), North American Flora (1938), Flora of Panama (1944), The Bromeliaceae of Brazil (1955), The Bromeliaceae of Colombia (1957), Flora of Guatemala (1958), The Bromeliaceae of Bolivia (1969), Flora de Venezuela (1971), and Flora of Uruguay (1971).

		The Bromeliaceae are epiphytic herbs or sometimes terrestrial xerophytes comprising about 45 genera and 2,000 species that are further characterized by the presence of conspicuous floral bracts and scurfy, stalked, peltate scales on the leaves and other plant surfaces.
		The leaves are alternate, parallel-veined, usually stiffly lorate or strap-shaped, and troughlike, with a sheathing base and commonly with spiny margins.
		Reddish bracts are also associated with the flowers.
