Cleomaceae Horan.

• Type genus: Cleome L. Sp. Pl. 2: 671–672. (1753) nom. cons.
  

Note: This is a taxonomic opinion summarised in Bayat et al. (2018), which is based upon a narrowly circumscribed Cleome s.s. However, an alternative view of Cleomaceae can be found on the Plants of the World site and in Christenhusz et al. (2018) this comprises only Cleome s.l., Cleomella and Dactylaena. The later circumscriptions finds many combinations unplaced and therefore can not be used here, as WS is a taxonomic database.
