| The family Melanthiaceae (formerly Trilliaceae) consists of a number of genera petaloid, lilioid monocot flowering plants. Many authors used to consider it as a tribe within the family Liliaceae, although more recent scholarship designates the Melanthiaceae a separate family of order Liliales. Scientific classification or biological classification refers to how biologists group and categorize extinct and living species of organisms. ...

To paraphrase what Steven Elliott wrote of the genus Trillium in 1817, "this family is an interesting one. A whorl of leaves at the summit of a stem, supporting a single flower, it contains and conceals many species." Its taxonomy has always been controversial. A recent treatment (Farmer and Schilling 2002) the family, which exhibits an arcto-tertiary distribution, is comprised of 6 genera. Three exhibit a wide distribution: Paris from Iceland to Japan, Daiswa from eastern Asia, and Trillium from North America and eastern Asia; and three are monotypic, endemic genera: Trillidium, with a tepaloid inflorescence, from the Himalaya Mountains; Kinugasa, with petaloid sepals, from Japan; and the newly described Pseudotrillium, with spotted petals, from the Pacific Northwest. Species See text Trilliums (also Wakerobins) are a member of the Trilliaceae or Trillium family, a part of the Liliales or Lily order. ...
