Question: Which group of plants contains more species, Verticordia or Ericaceae?

full_context: Document 1: Ericaceous bed: An Ericaceous bed is a bed (or garden) with acidic and often nutrient-poor soil such as Ericaceous compost and different types of peat. The pH of the soil is typically between 4.5 and 6. The purpose is typically to grow a number of garden plants which require (or thrives best in) acidic soil. Such plants commonly include heathers (Erica, Calluna and more) and Rhododendrons. Another group of plants common in ericaceous beds are those belonging to the boreal coniferous forest, e.g. Vacciniums. A number of orchids also grow well in nutrient-poor soil.
Document 2: Verticordia sect. Pilocosta: Verticordia" sect. "Pilocosta is one of eleven sections in the subgenus "Verticordia". It includes three species of plants in the genus "Verticordia". Plants in this section are mostly small, bushy shrubs greyish, needle-like leaves and hairy, rather than feathery flowers. Plants in this section have a flower cup with 10 hairy ribs, fringed sepals and a style which is hairy and has a distinct cap. When Alex George reviewed the genus in 1991 he formally described this section, publishing the description in the journal Nuytsia. The name "Pilocosta" is from the Latin words "pilus" meaning "hair" and "costa" meaning "rib" referring to the hairy ribs on the floral cup.
Document 3: Gaylussacia: Gaylussacia is a genus of about fifty species of flowering plants in the family Ericaceae, native to the Americas, where they occur in eastern North America and in South America in the Andes and the mountains of southeastern Brazil (the majority of the known species). Common English names include huckleberry (shared with plants in several other genera) and "dangleberry".
Document 4: Erica: Erica is a genus of roughly 860 species of flowering plants in the family Ericaceae. The English common names "heath" and "heather" are shared by some closely related genera of similar appearance. The genus "Calluna" was formerly included in "Erica" – it differs in having even smaller scale-leaves (less than 2–3 mm long), and the flower corolla consisting of separate petals. "Erica" is sometimes referred to as "winter (or spring) heather" to distinguish it from "Calluna" "summer (or autumn) heather".
Document 5: Verticordia sect. Penicillaris: Verticordia" sect. "Penicillaris is one of eleven sections in the subgenus "Verticordia". It includes two species of plants in the genus "Verticordia". Plants in this section are small, rounded shrubs with tiny leaves and sticky flowers. Like those in section "Micrantha", the plants often smell faintly of mice. When Alex George reviewed the genus in 1991 he formally described this section, publishing the description in the journal Nuytsia. The name "Penicillaris" is from the type species from this section.
Document 6: Ericaceae: The Ericaceae are a family of flowering plants, commonly known as the heath or heather family, found most commonly in acid and infertile growing conditions. The family is large, with c. 4250 known species spread across 124 genera, making it the 14th most species-rich family of flowering plants. The many well-known and economically important members of the Ericaceae include the cranberry, blueberry, huckleberry, rhododendron (including azaleas), and various common heaths and heathers ("Erica", "Cassiope", "Daboecia", and "Calluna" for example).
Document 7: Verticordia sect. Corymbiformis: Verticordia" sect. "Corymbiformis is one of eleven sections in the subgenus "Verticordia". It includes five species of plants in the genus "Verticordia". Plants in this section are mostly compact shrubs 0.3-1 m tall with a constricted floral cup, fringed or divided sepal lobes and dense heads of small flowers. When Alex George reviewed the genus in 1991 he formally described this section, publishing the description in the journal Nuytsia. The name "Corymbiformis" is derived from the Latin word "corymbus" meaning "a bunch of flowers" and the suffix "-formis" meaning "shaped" referring to the flower arrangement of the species in this section.
Document 8: Verticordia sect. Micrantha: Verticordia" sect. "Micrantha is one of eleven sections in the subgenus "Verticordia". It includes three species of plants in the genus "Verticordia". Plants in this section small shrubs with tiny flowers smelling faintly like mice. The floral cup has five ribs on its sides. When Alex George reviewed the genus in 1991 he formally described this section, publishing the description in the journal Nuytsia The name "Micrantha" is derived from the Ancient Greek "mikros" meaning "small" and "anthos" meaning "flower" in reference to the small flowers of plants in this section.
Document 9: Rhododendron: Rhododendron (from Ancient Greek ῥόδον "rhódon" "rose" and δένδρον "déndron" "tree") is a genus of 1,024 species of woody plants in the heath family (Ericaceae), either evergreen or deciduous, and found mainly in Asia, although it is also widespread throughout the highlands of the Appalachian Mountains of North America. It is the national flower of Nepal. Most species have brightly coloured flowers which bloom from late winter through to early summer.
Document 10: Verticordia sect. Infuscata: Verticordia" sect. "Infuscata is one of eleven sections in the subgenus "Verticordia". It includes two species of plants in the genus "Verticordia". Plants in this section are small shrubs with greyish foliage, unusual flowers and an odour of mice. The floral cup has a tuft of hairs around its base, dull purple or cream-coloured flowers with divided sepals and petals with a transparent margin. When Alex George reviewed the genus in 1991 he formally described this section, publishing the description in the journal Nuytsia. The name "Infuscata" is derived from the Latin word "fusca" meaning "dark" or "dusky" referring to the dullish colour of plants in this section.
Document 11: Verticordia: Verticordia is a genus of more than 100 species of plants commonly known as featherflowers, in the myrtle family, Myrtaceae. They range in form from very small shrubs such as "V. verticordina" to trees like "V. cunninghamii", some spindly, others dense and bushy, but the majority are woody shrubs up to 2.0 m tall. The flowers are variously described as "feathery", "woolly" or "hairy" and are found in most colours except blue. They often appear to be in rounded groups or spikes but in fact are always single, each flower borne on a separate stalk in a leaf axil. Each flower has five sepals and five petals all of a similar size with the sepals often having feathery or hairy lobes. There are usually ten stamens alternating with variously shaped staminodes. The style is simple, usually not extending beyond the petals and often has hairs near the tip. All but two species are found in Southwest Australia, the other two occurring in the Northern Territory.
Document 12: List of Rhododendron species: This List of "Rhododendron" species includes species of the genus "Rhododendron", which is in the plant family Ericaceae. Depending on the source, there are anywhere from 800 to over 1,100 wild species. The vast majority of "Rhododendron" species are native to the eastern Himalaya and southeast Tibet, along with the islands of Java, Sumatra, Borneo, New Guinea, and the Philippines. The rest are broadly spread throughout the northern hemisphere in relatively small isolated populations, including Japan, northwestern North America, the Appalachian, and the Caucasus Mountains.
Document 13: Epacris: Epacris is a genus of about 35–40 species of flowering plants in the family Ericaceae. It was formerly treated in a closely related but separate family Epacridaceae, but the various genera within Epacridaceae including "Epacris" have been revised in their relationships to each other and brought under the common umbrella of the Ericaceae. The genus "Epacris" is native to eastern and southeastern Australia (southeast Queensland south to Tasmania and west to southeast South Australia), New Caledonia and New Zealand. The species are known as heaths or Australian heaths.
Document 14: Verticordia sect. Verticordia: Verticordia" sect. "Verticordia is one of eleven sections in the subgenus "Verticordia". It includes eight species of plants in the genus "Verticordia". Plants in this section are open to bushy shrubs up to 1 m tall with needle-like leaves, feather-like sepals and anthers opening by slanting pores. When Johannes Conrad Schauer described other subgenera in "Verticordia", subgenus "Verticordia" became an autonym after Augustin de Candolle who described the genus in 1828. When Alex George reviewed the genus in 1991, he took the name of this section from that of the subgenus.
Document 15: Berberidaceae: The Berberidaceae are a family of 14 genera flowering plants commonly called the barberry family. This family is in the order Ranunculales.
