Taxonomic remark In the Cronquist system, the class Magnoliopsida was used to include only dicotyledons, monocots being in the class Liliopsida. Present preference (e.g. Ruggiero et al., 2015) is to use "Magnoliopsida" to encompass all angiosperms, with subgroups (including Monocotyledones) being recognised at the level of superorder.
