Ruscaceae

Ruscaceae was a debatable family that was split from Liliaceae. According to the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group II system, Ruscaceae could be made into it's own natural family or be included into the Asparagaceae. AGP III and IV stopped using optional placement and include the members of Ruscaceae as subfamily Nolinoideae in Asparagaceae.
