Polygonoideae

*Persicaria capitata.*
*Polygonum plebeium.*
**Polygonaceae** sunt familia plantarum florentium ordinis Caryophyllalium. Nomen botanicum est basionymum, ex nomine generis *Polygoni* deductum, primum ab Antonio Laurentio de Jussieu anno 1789 in libro de *Generibus Plantarum* adhibitum. Nomen, ex verbis Graecis *poly* 'multi' et *goni* 'genu, articulus' deductum, dicit multos nodos tumidos qui caulibus nonnullarum specierum sunt.

Familia circa 1200 species comprehendit, quae in circa quinquaginta generibus distribuuntur. Maxima genera sunt *Eriogonum* (240 species), *Rumex* (200 species), *Coccoloba* (120 species), *Persicaria* (100 species), et *Calligonum* (80 species). Familia est per orbem terrarum praesens, sed in Zona Septentrionali Temperata diversissima.

Nonnullae species ut plantae ornamentales excoluntur. Aliquae species generis *Triplaris* lignum praebent. Fructus *Coccolobae uviferae* ab hominibus comeditur; ex quo in Florida fructus conditi fiunt et in commercio cibario venumdatur. Petioli  *Rhei rhabarbari*) quoque comeduntur. Folia *Rumicis acetosae* comeduntur in acetariis, vel ut holera cocta adhibentur. Semina duarum specierum generis *Fagopyri* granum praebent.

Inter Polygonaceas sunt nonnullae herbae inutiles molestissimae, praecipue species generum *Emicis, Persicariae, Polygoni, et* Rumicis.
