Carbon series;

Iron series,
Silver series;
Lamiidae.
TaxonomyIn the
Apg3 classification the
Malvidae consist of the big Orders
Brassicales,
Malvales and
Sapindales and the small Orders Crossomateles,
Huerteales and
Picramniales.
Santalales have been difficult to place till now and have been associated also with
Asteranae.
In the
Plant theory the Order of the
Santalales has been added to the
Malvidae. This is a tentative action as it affects the monophyly of the
Malvidae according to the present taxonomical knowledge.
Santalales though have qualities of
Silver series, fitting them better with
Malvidae than
Asteranae.
Cistales and
Thymelaeaceae are split off from
Malvales, which do not affect the monophyly of each of these clades.
Cistales is placed in its own Order.
Thymelaeaceae are placed in
Huerteales. This is in deviation of the
Apg3 classification, making
Huerteales polyphyletic according to current knowledge.
Crossosomatales is placed in
Phase 1 as it is the first diverging lineage of the core
Malvidae.
Phases1.
Crossosomatales, including
Picramniales: they feel that they have to get a place in the system.
2.
Huerteales: they have a place but have to fight for it, or get overwhelmed in it.
3.
Malvales: they have a place but it is uncertain, they get confused what to do, follow their own impulse or that of others.
4.
Sapindales: they feel central in the system, which gives them safety but also responsibility for it.
5.
Cistales: they have their place, do a lot but then feel it is too much, that they get used.
6.
Brassicales: they feel part of the system but think about leaving as it does not give them enough love and respect.
7.
Santalales: they feel that they can lose their place in the system, or that it can collapse as a whole.
