In the Mascarenes, they are among the most diverse angiosperm groups, analogous to such (unrelated) plants as the aeoniums on the Canary Islands or the silversword alliance of the Hawaiian Islands.
Species tend to be confined to a single host plant, many species preferring woody hosts, but a diversity of angiosperm hosts are known to the Flexiviridae.
The Indian Association for Angiosperm Taxonomy (IAAT) was established by Dr. K. S. Manilal and his colleagues in the year 1990.
Jack Albert Wolfe (1936–2005) was an American paleontologist best known for his studies of Tertiary climate in western North America through analysis of fossil angiosperm leaves.
Carnivory in plants appears to have evolved independently in four major angiosperm lineages and five orders: Poales, Caryophyllales, Oxalidales, Ericales, and Lamiales.
In his earlier research he was interested in angiosperms such as the genus Rosa and the species Drosera rotundifolia (common sundew), From the late 1860s, he focused on mycology, publishing significant works on the fungal class Pyrenomycetes.
In plant kingdom, though trehalose has been reported from several pteridophytes including Selaginella lepidophylla and Botrychium lunaria; the sugar is rare in vascular plants and reported only in ripening fruits of several members of Apiaceae and in the leaves of the desiccation-tolerant angiosperm Myrothamnus flabellifolius .
