The family has been recognised by at least some taxonomists. The family consists of two genera of [[aquatic plant]]s, (''[[Brasenia]]'' and ''[[Cabomba]]''), totalling half-a-dozen species. The [[APG II system]], of 2003 (unchanged from the [[APG system]], of 1998), supports inclusion of the family as part of the other water lily family, [[Nymphaeaceae]]. However, APG II does allow 'Cabombaceae' as an optional segregate. In either case the family is accepted among the most basal lineages in the clade [[angiosperms]]. Many botanists now recognize both families as part of the order [[Nymphaeales]] together with [[Hydatellaceae]]. == External links == * [http://delta-intkey.com/angio/www/cabombac.htm Cabombaceae] in L.
