Talk:Geastraceae

I don't get it, the order in the taxobox is Geastrales, which clearly contradicts with what is written: "but more recently they have been placed in Phallales". Other sources also place Geastraceae in other orders. Can someone please sort this matter, or at least add a couple of sources to support the contents of the article? { Zh! } (talk) 12:30, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Physiology

Could someone in the know put a little blurby section about the physiology and other traits common to genera in this family? //Blaxthos ( t / c ) 22:33, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

Suggested move

Looks like Geastraceae is the sole taxon in the order Geastrales, which seems to suggest the contents of this article be moved/merged, according to "Taxa of minor rank that contain a single taxon of major rank are treated at the article on the major rank." from WP:naming conventions (flora) - am I interpreting this correctly?

Retain reference if merged

Note that there is a difference between an order and a family and the two being considered for merger are one of each. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.247.127.74 (talk) 18:17, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

Best to include moving the reference: Hosaka, K., et al. (2006). "Molecular phylogenetics of the gomphoid-phalloid fungi with an establishment of the new subclass Phallomycetidae and two new orders". Mycologia 98: 955. doi:10.3852/mycologia.98.6.949 if the merger occurs. ---- 83d40m (talk) 18:03, 25 September 2010 (UTC)
