TaxonomyUntil the early 21st century, the order was not recognised by systems of classification, except in the Reveal system. The Cronquist system of 1981, placed them in families Illiciaceae and Schisandraceae, in the order Illiciales. The APG system of 1998, did not recognize Austrobaileyales. The Apg2 system, of 2003, accepts Austrobaileyales and places it among the basal angiosperms. The order belongs to the group of basal angiosperms, the ANA clade with Amborellales, Nymphaeales, and Austrobaileyales. Austrobaileyales is sister to all remaining Angiospermae, diverged early from them.
