Aside from the Rosaceae themselves, this is a complete change in composition from the Rosales from the older Cronquist taxonomy:
  • Brunelliaceae\n* Connaraceae\n* Eucryphiaceae\n* Cunoniaceae\n* Davidsoniaceae\n* Dialypetalanthaceae\n* Pittosporaceae\n* Byblidaceae\n* Hydrangeaceae\n* Columelliaceae\n* Grossulariaceae\n* Greyiaceae\n* Bruniaceae\n* Anisophylleaceae\n* Alseuosmiaceae\n* Crassulaceae\n* Cephalotaceae\n* Saxifragaceae\n* Rosaceae\n* Neuradaceae\n* Crossosomataceae\n* Chrysobalanaceae\n* Surianaceae\n* Rhabdodendraceae
These forms have been removed to various other orders, most notable the Saxifragales, while the former Urticales have been transferred here. \n\n\n\n

"All are lunatics, but he who can analyze his delusion is called a philosopher." - Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)
