Family : Amarantaceae • Classification : • Division: Spermatophyta seed bearing plants • Sub division : Angiospermae seeds present inside seed coat • Class : Dicotyledoneae Two cotyledons present, tetra or pentamerrous symmetry.,reticulate venation, tap root system. • Sub class: Apetalae Flowers unisexual ,.Perianth either petaloid or sepaloid or absent. • Series : Curvembryeae Flowers regular, . Ovary superior, Embryo curved • Order : Chenopodiales Mostly herbs, Ovary superior,.Monocarpellary with one ovule • Family : Amarantaceae

Style united, short or long, stigma capitate or 2-3-fid,ovules solitary or rarely more on a basal funicle. • Fruit : A nut, utricle or ptyxis (dehiscing transversely ) as in Celosia

Family : Rutaceae • Plant : Shrubs or trees , very rarely herbs , often provided with thorns. • Leaves : Alternate or opposite ,simple or compound , generally smooth with pellucid or gland-dotted (containing essential oil) and exstipulate. • Inflorescence :Axillary or terminal cymes or panicles or solitary. • Flowers :Regular /rarely irregular ,bisexual ,rarely unisexual , with an annular or cushion-like disk generally between or above the stamens. • Sepals : 4-5,imbricate or valvate ,free or connate, glandular • Petals : 4-5,imbricate rarely valvate ,free .
