The Dipsacales are an order of flowering plants, included within the asterid group of dicotyledons. The families given at right are those accepted by the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group. Scientific classification or biological classification refers to how biologists group and categorize extinct and living species of organisms. ...

Orders see text Dicotyledons or dicots are flowering plants whose seed contains two embryonic leaves or cotyledons. ... The Angiosperm Phylogeny Group is an international group of systematic botanists who have come together to try to establish a consensus view of the taxonomy of flowering plants in the light of the rapid rise of molecular systematics. ...
Under the older Cronquist system, the Morinaceae were included within the Dipsacaceae, and the Linnaeaceae and Diervillaceae within the Caprifoliaceae, as were two genera now transferred to the Adoxaceae. The Cronquist system is a scheme for the classification of flowering plants (or angiosperms). ...
A few other families may also belong near this order. These include the Desfontainiaceae, Polyosmotaceae, Paracryphiaceae, and Sphenostemonaceae.
If the pair are not immediately related to Dipsacales, the substantial similarity that they have with Dipsacales may indicate either substantial homoplasy or a suite of lower-level synapomorphies in the asterid II group of which there is currently no indication.
In general, characters of Dipsacales and of groupings within it need a more strongly supported and stable phylogeny before we can understand their evolution.
Note that the small families recently recognised in Dipsacales are a consequence of maintaining the well known Dipsacaceae and Valerianaceae in their old circumscriptions - the small clades resulting from the break-up of the old, broadly-circumscribed Caprifoliaceae remained unaccounted for.
