Flowers of Anisophyllea(Anisophylleaceae, Cucurbitales) andCeratopetalum (Cunoniaceae, Oxalidales) are surprisingly similar in appearance. To date, these families have never been interpreted as closely related, and even in present molecular (rbcL) studies they appear in different orders of eurosids I (APG, Annals of the Missouri Botanical Garden85:531-553, 1998). In this investigation, flowers of selected taxa of both families are morphologically and anatomically compared. In addition, previous work on the two families is reviewed. The results strongly emphasize the great similarity in all floral organs. Some special similarities include the occurrence of trimerous flowers, isomerous organ whorls (including the gynoecium), valvate sepals, d...
