Pandanaceae is a family of flowering plants native to the tropics of the Old World. It consists of three genera and about 700 species, of which the majority are in the genus Pandanus (the screwpines). The APG II system places the family in the order Pandanales, of the monocots. Scientific classification or biological classification is how biologists group and categorize extinct and living species of organisms. ...

The Pandaniflorae, as here treated, are a group of monocots comprising two families: the Pandanaceae (screw-"pines") and the Cyclanthaceae (Panama hat plants).
There has been general agreement that the Cyclanthaceae and Pandanaceae are closely related, and they have usually been considered close relatives of the palms, which they resemble.
Both the Cyclanthaceae and Pandanaceae have a strong resemblance to palms, though the architecture of each group resembles the palms in different ways.
