Since the release of the APG II system, new research has suggested a relationship between ''Sphenostemon'' and ''[[Paracryphia]]''. As a result, the [[Angiosperm Phylogeny Website]] recommends it be placed in [[Paracryphiaceae]]. This is in turn placed alone in order [[Paracryphiales]].<ref>{{cite web|last = Stevens|first = P|title = Angiosperm Phylogeny Website|publisher = Missouri Botanical Garden|date = 2001 onwards|url = http://www.mobot.org/mobot/research/APweb/welcome.html|accessdate = 2007-08-03}}</ref>

Sphenostemon is the genus of small evergreen trees or shrubs native to New Guinea, Queensland (Australia) and New Caledonia. They have opposite or spiral leaves, and at most small stipules. The small flowers, borne in terminal inflorescences, have free (i.e. unjoined) sepals and petals. The anthers have thick filaments. The fruit, a berry, is fleshy and contains two seeds. The genus is described as "particularly poorly known".[2]

Taxonomy[edit]

In the 2009 APG III system, the genus is placed in the family Paracryphiaceae, along with Paracryphia and Quintinia.[3] The earlier APG II system placed it alone in family Sphenostemonaceae.[4]
