Difference (from prior major revision) (minor diff, author diff)

Changed: 1c1

The angiosperms, or flowering plants. Classification is half dead and half alive, with the former predominating for the dicots. I'm trying very hard to find what the current system is, so please bear with me! "Good" orders are wikied, although there is still much variation; the rest are following Cronquist as a back-up.

Systematics

Changed: 3c3

Basal flowers

The most prevalent classification of flowers still seems to be Cronquist, but new findings have invalidated many of the groupings. Here Judd et al are followed as one of the more prevalent of the revised schemes. Hopefully notes on the differences between the various versions will be added where possible.
