Mcneillia is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Caryophyllaceae. [1]
Its native range is southeastern Europe to Turkey. [1]
Five species are accepted. [1]
Caryophyllaceae, commonly called the pink family or carnation family, is a family of flowering plants. It is included in the dicotyledon order Caryophyllales in the APG III system, alongside 33 other families, including Amaranthaceae, Cactaceae, and Polygonaceae. It is a large family, with 81 genera and about 2,625 known species.
Melastomataceae is a family of dicotyledonous flowering plants found mostly in the tropics comprising c. 175 genera and c. 5115 known species. Melastomes are annual or perennial herbs, shrubs, or small trees.
Salicornia is a genus of succulent, halophytic flowering plants in the family Amaranthaceae that grow in salt marshes, on beaches, and among mangroves. Salicornia species are native to North America, Europe, central Asia, and southern Africa. Common names for the genus include glasswort, pickleweed, picklegrass, and marsh samphire; these common names are also used for some species not in Salicornia. To French speakers in Atlantic Canada, they are known colloquially as titines de souris. The main European species is often eaten, called marsh samphire in Britain, and the main North American species is occasionally sold in grocery stores or appears on restaurant menus as sea beans, samphire greens or sea asparagus.
There are over 190 vascular plant species on the Norwegian Arctic archipelago of Svalbard. This figure does not include algae, mosses, and lichens, which are non-vascular plants. For an island so far north, this number of species constitutes an astonishing variety of plant life. Because of the harsh climate and the short growing season, all the plants are slow growing. They seldom grow higher than 10 cm (4 in)
Argophyllaceae is a family of shrubs or small trees belonging to the order Asterales. The family includes c. 24 species in two genera, Argophyllum and Corokia. Members of the family are native to eastern Australia, New Zealand, Lord Howe Island, New Caledonia, and Rapa Iti.
Minuartia is a genus of flowering plants commonly known as sandworts in the family Caryophyllaceae.
Mcneillia graminifolia is a species of flowering plant in the carnation family, Caryophyllaceae. It is a subshrub native to southeastern Europe, including Italy, Sicily, the former Yugoslav countries, Albania, Greece, and Romania.
Sabulina californica, commonly known as California sandwort, is a species of flowering plant in the family Caryophyllaceae.
Sabulina pusilla is a species of flowering plant in the family Caryophyllaceae known by the common names annual sandwort and dwarf stitchwort.
Facchinia is a genus of flowering plants in the pink and carnation family Caryophyllaceae, native to the Pyrenees and the Alps. Many species in this genus were previously placed in Minuartia.
Cherleria is a genus of flowering plants in the family Caryophyllaceae, found in the Arctic and mountain areas of the northern hemisphere. Its center of diversity is the Balkans. The species shows ecological differentiation and multiple colonisations of alpine habitats. It was enlarged in 2017 with species from other genera.
Eremogone is a genus of flowering plants in the family Caryophyllaceae, native to western North America, northern Asia, eastern Europe and northeastern Africa. Attempts to resolve taxonomic relationships within the Caryophyllaceae have resulted in the enlargement of Eremogone with species from other genera.
Argyrella is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Melastomataceae. Its native range is Africa.
Arthrocaulon is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Amaranthaceae.
Pseudocherleria is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Caryophyllaceae.
Minuartiella is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Caryophyllaceae.
Mononeuria is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Caryophyllaceae.
Sabulina verna is a scarce species of flowering plant in the family Caryophyllaceae, known by the common names spring sandwort, leadwort, golden moss, or Irish moss. It is a small mat-forming, perennial herb. It was first described as Arenaria verna by Carl Linnaeus in 1767 and is known by several synonyms including Minuartia verna.
Sabulina is a genus of flowering plants in the family Caryophyllaceae. It includes 74 species native to temperate and subtropical North America, Eurasia, and North Africa.
