In such classifications the subfamilies Mimosoideae and Caesalpinioideae are raised to the rank of families Mimosaceae and Caesalpiniaceae.
The names Leguminosae or Papilionaceae are unambiguous, and taxonomists dealing with this group mostly use Leguminosae.
Faboideae or Papilionoideae (Fabaceae sensu strictu or Papilionaceae): One petal is large and has a crease in it, the two adjacent petals are on the sides, and the two bottom petals are joined together at the bottom, forming a boat-like structure.
The symptoms were clearly visible during spring and autumn.
Infection trials using sap inoculation were carried out in order to find suitable indicator plants and plants for virus propagation, mainly within the families Chenopodiaceae, Papilionaceae and Solanaceae.
In the Papilionaceae family, in Spinach and Catharanthus roseus, mainly latent infection occurred.

The stipules of Lupinus (lupines, Family Papilionaceae), are fused to the base of the petioles, and they turn brown before they fall from the plant.
Lupines have distinctive palmately compound leaves, in some species with as many as 17 leaflets.
Leaflets, petiole, stem, and stipules all possess hairs on this and many of the California species.
Seed Pods - Leguminosae(Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-21)
These Families have been formed by splitting the old Leguminosae Family on the basis of flower shape, type of leaves, and number of stamens.
The Papilionaceae Family is found in temperate, sub-tropical and tropical areas.
Members of this Family are mostly herbs, but with some trees and shrubs, and have irregular flowers forming a butterfly or pea-flower shape, with the lateral petals enclosed by the standard when in bud, with ten stamens.
