Altingiaceae is a small

cultivated as ornamentals and many produce valuable wood.[5]

Classification

Altingiaceae now consists of the single genus

artificial.[4]

History

The name "Altingiaceae" has a long and complex

Daphniphyllaceae are sister. This clade is sister to Hamamelidaceae and these three families are sister to Altingiaceae. The clade is sister to Paeoniaceae[10]

The family is named for the genus Altingia, now a synonym of

Governor-General of the Dutch East Indies when Noronha visited Java.[11]

Altingiaceae have an extensive

mya (million years ago). The crown group Altingiaceae is much more recent, originating in the Eocene, about 40 Mya.[4]
