Liliiflorae

Liliiflorae is a botanical name, which may be used for a taxon at a rank above that of family, but not for a rank where Art. 16 or 17 of the ICBN prescribes a standardised ending.

The Engler system, in its update of 1964, and the Wettstein system, last revised in 1935, used this name for an order placed in the class Monocotyledoneae / Monocotyledones of the subdivision Angiospermae. This order corresponded roughly to the later order Liliales. As Liliaceae is the name of a family it is likely that the use of this name in the rank of order is forbidden today by Art. 17.

However, the name has also been used for a superorder, which is allowed (but see Lilianae).
