The family Liliaceae was described by Michel Adanson in 1763 and formally named by Antoine Laurent de Jussieu in 1789. Jussieu defined this grouping as having a calyx of six equal colored parts, six stamens , a superior ovary , single style , and a trilocular (three-chambered) capsule .
The term has varied over the years but in modern classification constitutes either a broad circumscription (Lilieae sensu lato, s.l.) with eight genera, placed in the subfamily Lilioideae, or narrower circumscription with four genera (Lilieae sensu stricto, s.s.), excluding Tulipa (which now includes Amana), Erythronium and Gagea (which now includes Lloydia) which are treated as a separate ...
The taxonomy of the plant family Liliaceae has had a complex history since its first description in the mid-eighteenth century.

Nymphaeaceae is a small family of three to six genera: Barclaya, Euryale, Nuphar, Nymphaea, Ondinea, and Victoria. The genus Barclaya is sometimes given rank as its own family, Barclayaceae , on the basis of an extended perianth tube (combined sepals and petals ) arising from the top of the ovary and by stamens that are joined in the base.
A family may be divided into subfamilies, which are intermediate ranks between the ranks of family and genus. The official family names are Latin in origin; however, popular names are often used: for example, walnut trees and hickory trees belong to the family Juglandaceae, but that family is commonly referred to as the "walnut family".
