 Taxonomy, Identification and Ecology of the Heliconiaceae. Final Draft
The most distinguishing characteristic of this group is the large, colorfu,l bracteate inflorescence.
These include the Heliconiaceae (heliconias), Zingiberaceae (gingers), Musaceae (bananas), and Strelitziaceae (birds-of-paradise).
This presentation will briefly distinguish between these important tropical families but concentrate on the identification, and pollination ecology of the Genus Heliconia.

 Zingiberales
Mostly tropical America, a few Celebes to the Pacific (Map: Old World from Kress 1990a; New World, J. Kress, pers.
Heliconiaceae are large herbs with 2-ranked leaves and inflorescences with large, colored bracts in the axils of which are fascicles of flowers with petaloid tepals; the drupaceous fruit is borne on a stout, elongated pedicel and has a single hard stone per loculus.
Rudall and Bateman (2004) note that flowers in which the abaxial stamen of the outer whorl is sterile is a feature of Heliconiaceae plus the Marantaceae-Zingiberaceae clade, however, Heliconiaceae are sister to all other Zingiberales in Janssen and Bremer (2004).
