1 TANE (1966) 12 : A SUMMARY OF THE CHIEF CHARACTERS OF MONOCOTYLEDONOUS FLORAL FAMILIES by Jennifer M. Ward INTRODUCTION The following Key to Orders of Monocotyledons can be used to identify a specimen to the Ordinal level. The specimen can then be assigned to one of the Families in that Order, using the tabulated summary of Family characteristics. The TABLE enables the distinctive features of each Family to be easily compared, and provides in a readily accessible form the information needed for arranging the Families in systematic sequences. The names of the Orders and Families are those of Rendle (1904) and the sequence in which they are arranged follows Hutchinson (1959), with a few changes, some of which were suggested by J.W. Dawson (pers. comm., 1961). In the TABLE the Families Commelinaceae, Restionaceae, and Centrolepidaceae are placed in the Order ENANTIOBLASTAE because they have orthotropous ovules, but since many authorities disagree about their affinities, they are treated separately in the KEY. For convenience, the Juncaceae are also treated separately, although there is no doubt that they are in the LILIALES.
