Flagellaria is the sole genus in the flowering plant family Flagellariaceae with only five species.[3] The family has historically been recognized by few taxonomists. The APG II system, of 2003 (unchanged from the APG system, 1998), does recognize such a family, and assigns it to the order Poales in the clade commelinids, in the monocots.
