Fumariaceae is the botanical name for a family of flowering plants. Such a family has been recognized by a fair number of taxonomists: it is sometimes called the "Fumitory family". The family includes some popular garden plants, such as A botanical name is a formal name conforming to the ICBN. As with its zoological and bacterial equivalents it may also be called a scientific name. Botanical names may be in one part (genus and above), two parts (species) or three parts (below the rank of species). ...

The APG II system, of 2003 (unchanged from the APG system, of 1998), does not recognize this family, not as such. However, it does allow it to be segregated from the family Papaveraceae, as an optional segregate. APG II, in as far as it accepts this family, places it in the order Ranunculales, in the clade eudicots. A modern system of plant taxonomy, the APG II system of plant classification was published in 2003 by the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group, APG, in Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (2003). ...

In this circumscription it includes the plants that sometimes have been treated as family Hypecoaceae and thus consists of a dozen-and-a-half genera, with several hundred species, from the Northern Hemisphere and South Africa. genera see text Fumariaceae is the botanical name for a family of flowering plants. ... The Northern Hemisphere is the half of a planets surface (or celestial sphere) that is north of the equator (the word hemisphere literally means half ball). On the Earth, the Northern Hemisphere contains most of the land and about 88-90% of the human population. ...

Thus, it would conform to the family as recognized by the Cronquist system, of 1981, which however placed it in order Papaverales, in subclass Magnoliidae in class Magnoliopsida [=dicotyledons].
