  member of:  #family_Caryophyllaceae__Caryophyllaceae__carnation_family__carnationfamily__pink_family  large family of herbs or subshrubs (usually with stems swollen at the nodes)
     member of:  #order_Caryophyllales__Caryophyllales__Chenopodiales__order-Chenopodiales  corresponds approximately to the older group Centrospermae
        member of:  #subclass_Caryophyllidae__Caryophyllidae  a group of families of mostly flowers having basal or free-central placentation and trinucleate pollen (binucleate pollen is commoner in flowering plants); contains 14 families including: Caryophyllaceae (carnations and pinks); Aizoaceae; Amaranthaceae; Batidaceae; Chenopodiaceae; Cactaceae (order Opuntiales); Nyctaginaceae; Phytolaccaceae; corresponds approximately to order Caryophyllales; sometimes classified as a superorder
           member of:  #class_Dicotyledones__Dicotyledones__Dicotyledonae__class_Dicotyledonae__Magnoliopsida__class_Magnoliopsida  comprising seed plants that produce an embryo with paired cotyledons and net-veined leaves; divided into six (not always well distinguished) subclasses (or superorders): Magnoliidae and Hamamelidae (considered primitive); Caryophyllidae (an early and distinctive offshoot); and three more or less advanced groups: Dilleniidae; Rosidae; Asteridae
              member of:  #class_Angiospermae__Angiospermae__Magnoliophyta__division_Magnoliophyta__Anthophyta__division_Anthophyta  comprising flowering plants that produce seeds enclosed in an ovary; in some systems considered a class (Angiospermae) and in others a division (Magnoliophyta or Anthophyta)
                 member of:  #division_Spermatophyta__Spermatophyta  seed plants; comprises the Angiospermae (or Magnoliophyta) and Gymnospermae (or Gymnospermophyta); in some classification systems Spermatophyta is coordinate with Pteridophyta (spore producing plants having vascular tissue and roots) and Bryophyta (spore producing plants lacking vascular tissue and roots)
                    member of:  #kingdom_Plantae__Plantae__plant_kingdom__plantkingdom  taxonomic kingdom comprising all living or extinct plants
