Lilianae

Lilianae (Liliiflorae) is a botanical name, for a superorder (that is, a rank higher than that of order) of angiosperms (flowering plants). Such a superorder of necessity includes the type family Liliaceae (and usually the type order Liliales). Terminations at the rank of superorder are not standardized by the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (ICN), although the suffix -anae has been proposed. Lilianae, introduced in 1966 as a superorder progressively replaced the older term Liliiflorae, introduced in 1825 as an order.
