sentences: Acanthaceae is a family (the acanthus family) of dicotyledonous flowering plants containing almost 250 genera and about 2500 species.
 Most are tropical herbs, shrubs, or twining vines; some are epiphytes.
 Only a few species are distributed in temperate regions.
 The four main centres of distribution are Indonesia and Malaysia, Africa, Brazil, and Central America.
 The representatives of the family can be found in nearly every habitat, including dense or open forests, scrublands, wet fields and valleys, sea coast and marine areas, swamps, and mangrove forests.
Cardamine (bittercress or bitter-cress) is a large genus of flowering plants in the family Brassicaceae.
 It contains more than 150 species of annuals and perennials.
 The genus grows worldwide in diverse habitats, except the Antarctic.

 It is one of only two genera in its family that contains aquatic plants, the other being "Justicia".
 The genus is treated in the tribe "Hygrophileae", which is noted as being in need of revision at the genus level, meaning the current taxonomic boundaries of "Hygrophila" are likely to change in the future.
Justicia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Acanthaceae.
 There are 658 species with a further 611 species as yet unresolved by Kew.
 They are native to tropical to warm temperate regions of the Americas, India and Africa.
 Common names include water-willow and shrimp plant, the latter from the inflorescences, which resemble a shrimp in some species.
 The generic name honours Scottish horticulturist James Justice (1698–1763).
 They are closely related to "Pachystachys".
Schaueria is a genus of flowering plants in the family Acanthaceae.
 They are endemic to Brazil, from Bahia to Rio Grande do Sul.
