Lanariaceae is the botanical name of a family of flowering plants, placed in the order Asparagales of the monocots.[1] The family has only recently been recognized by taxonomists. The APG III system of 2009 (unchanged from the 1998 and 2003 versions) does recognize this family. The family then includes a single species (Lanaria lanata, syn. Lanaria plumosa), occurring in South Africa.
