Joinvilleaceae is the botanical name for a family of flowering plants. Such a family has rarely been recognized by taxonomists.
The APG II system, of 2003 (unchanged from the APG system, 1998), does recognize this family, and assigns it to the order Poales in the clade commelinids in the monocots. The family consists of one genus only, with few species, found from the Malay Peninsula to the Pacific area.
