Alangium Alangium is a small genus of flowering plants. The genus is included either in a broad view of the dogwood family Cornaceae, or as the sole member of its own family Alangiaceae. "Alangium" has about 40 species, but some of the species boundaries are not entirely clear. The type species for "Alangium" is "Alangium decapetalum", which is now treated as a subspecies of "Alangium salviifolium". All of the species are shrubs or small trees, except the liana "Alangium kwangsiense". "A. chinense, A. platanifolium", and "A. salviifolium" are known in cultivation.

Howea Howea is a genus of two palms, "H. belmoreana" and "H. forsteriana", both endemic to Lord Howe Island, Australia. "H. forsteriana" in particular is commonly grown as an indoor plant in the Northern Hemisphere, and the two species form the mainstay of the island's palm seed industry and more importantly its trade in newly germinated seedlings. The palms are also cultivated on Norfolk Island, where seeds are produced for export.

Alyogyne Alyogyne is a genus of flowering plants in the family Malvaceae which are endemic to Australia. Its species were formerly in the genus Hibiscus but were split off starting in 1863 with "H. hakaeifolius". In 1915 Lewton transferred "H. cuneiformis" and in Fryxell (1968) "H. pinonianus" and "H. huegelii" followed. A recent revision has created many new species.

Genoplesium Genoplesium commonly known as midge orchids, is a genus of about 50 species of flowering plants in the orchid family, Orchidaceae and is found in Australia, New Zealand and New Caledonia. Midge orchids are terrestrial herbs with a single leaf at the base of the plant. They are similar to orchids in the genus "Prasophyllum" in that plants without flowers have a hollow, onion-like leaf. The flowers are small but often scented and attractive to their insect pollinators. There is disagreement about which species belong to this genus and some taxonomists suggest that most belong in the genus "Corunastylis".

Pedaliaceae Pedaliaceae, the pedalium family or sesame family, is a flowering plant family classified in the order Scrophulariales in the Cronquist system and Lamiales in the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group system. Cronquist included the family Martyniaceae in Pedaliaceae, but phylogenetic studies have shown that the two families are not closely related and they are maintained as separate by the APG. Both families are characterized by having mucilaginous hairs, which often give the stems and leaves a slimy or clammy feel, and often have fruits with hooks or horns.

Harold E. Moore Harold Emery Moore, Jr. (July 7, 1917 – October 27, 1980) was an American botanist especially known for his work on the systematics of the palm family. He served as Director of the L. H. Bailey Hortorium at Cornell University, and was appointed Liberty Hyde Bailey Professor of Botany in 1978. He was an important contributor to "Hortus Third" and was founding editor of the palm journal "Principes" (now "Palms"). He also edited "Gentes Herbarum" and provided the foundation for the first edition of "Genera Palmarum", a seminal work on palm taxonomy which was later completed by Natalie Uhl and John Dransfield.

Hydriastele Hydriastele is a diverse and widespread genus of flowering plant in the palm family found throughout Australia and New Zealand, Melanesia, Polynesia, and Southeast Asia. It consisted of just nine species until 2004, when molecular research, supported by morphologic similarities, led taxonomists to include the members of the Gulubia, Gronophyllum, and Siphokentia genera. 48 species are now recognized, of which 38 are new combinations, two are new names and one is a new species. It is named in Greek, combining "hydriad", a water nymph in mythology, and "column".

"Polypodium aureum", "Polypodium leucatomos") is an epiphytic fern native to tropical and subtropical regions of the Americas. It is confined to the eastern side of the continents, extending north into the United States to Florida and the extreme southeast of Georgia, and south through the Caribbean (the Bahamas, Puerto Rico, and Lesser Antilles), and northern and eastern South America to Paraguay. It is the only species of "Phlebodium" found in North America, the other species all confined to South America. Other common names include calaguala (Spanish language), laua`e haole (Hawaiian), samambaia (Portuguese), and hartassbräken (Swedish).

Pearcea Pearcea is a South American genus of 17 species of tropical herbs in the flowering plant family Gesneriaceae. It is classified in tribe Gloxinieae and is closely related to the genus "Kohleria", in which some of its species were previously included. The genus "Parakohleria" has recently been synonymized under "Pearcea", a conclusion later supported by molecular analyses that showed that "Pearcea hypocyrtiflora" was nested within the former Parakohlerias.

Cornaceae Cornaceae is a cosmopolitan family of flowering plants in the order Cornales. It contains approximately 85 species in two genera, "Alangium" and "Cornus". They are mostly trees and shrubs, which may be deciduous or evergreen, although a few species are perennial herbs. Members of the family usually have opposite or alternate simple leaves, four- or five-parted flowers clustered in inflorescences or pseudanthia, and drupaceous fruits. In northern temperate areas, Cornaceae are well known from the dogwoods "Cornus".
