Thismiaceae is a family of flowering plants recognized by several authors (like J. Hutchinson, Chase et al. 1995,[1] 2000;[2] Angiosperm Phylogeny Group 1998; Caddick et al. 2000;[3][4] Neyland 2002;[5] Thiele & Jordan 2002,[6] Merckx et al. 2006 [7] and Woodward et al. 2007 [8]), but also has been included mainly in Burmanniaceae as tribe Thismieae (APG II, Maas-van de Kamer in Kubitzki system [9] and others), consisting of five genera, three (Afrothismia, Haplothismia and Oxygyne) are entirely from Old World, Thismia is from tropical areas of both America and Asia, as well as three temperate species in Illinois (U.S.A), Japan and New Zealand, temperate Australia and Tiputinia is from Amazonia.
