The
Piperales are an order of
flowering plants. Newer classification systems generally consider them part of the Magnoliid group of
Palaeodicotyledons. The order comprises five families.
The
Aristolochiaceae are generally included in order Piperales, but some classification systems give them their own order,
Aristolochiales. Under the
Cronquist system the family Chloranthaceae was also placed here.
