| Philesiaceae distibution | |
Philesiaceae is the botanical name of a family of flowering plants. Such a family has been recognized by relatively few taxonomists.
The APG II system, of 2003 (unchanged from the APG system, of 1998), does recognize such a family and places it in the order Liliales, in the clade monocots. It consists of only very few species of perennial plants in southern Chile.
