Hamamelidales
The Hamemelidales was an order of dicotyledons in the Cronquist system of flowering plant classification, including the following families:
- Family Hamamelidaceae (witch-hazel family)
- Family Cercidiphyllaceae (katsura tree)
- Family Eupteleaceae
- Family Platanaceae (plane trees)
- Family Myrothamnaceae (resurrection bush)
These served as the prototype for the subclass Hamamelidae.
In newer classifications based on genetic research by the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group, these families are scattered among various other orders, most notably the Saxifragales, but with the Platanaceae transferred to the Proteales.
