Plant Orders

Bruniales is an order of flowering plants within the asterid group of eudicots under the APG IV classification, comprising two families: Bruniaceae, a group of shrubs native to South Africa, and Columelliaceae, trees and shrubs native to Central and South America. The order therefore spans a disjunct distribution across southern Africa and the Americas.
