Abstract

The split of the Flacourtiaceae into Achariaceae and Salicaceae has necessitated an updated treatment of these families for regional floras. In revising the Achariaceae for the Flora of Thailand, new insights on taxon circumscriptions in the family were generated based on a robust interrogation of delimiting characters and historical taxonomic decisions. Justifications for accepting certain taxa and synonymising others are here presented, along with recommendations for guiding future taxonomic work.
