Abstract Malvales is a diverse order of flowering plants, economically and ecologically relevant, it known for its broad morphological variability. Recent phylogenomic studies have revealed complex evolutionary history the order, including localised phylogenetic discordances among nuclear loci. However, since late 1990s, classification has largely been neglected. This study aims to address this gap by revisiting Malvales, with focus on largest family, Malvaceae. By integrating datasets, our...
