Southwestern Plant Families Arranged Phylogenetically
For the most part, I'm using the family and order system of Judd,
Campbell, Kellogg, Stevens, and
Donoghue's "Plant Systematics: A Phylogenetic Approach". Orders are arranged
phylogenetically, following the sequence in that book. See this
page for families that have changed recently or might otherwise be confusing.
