Species

Aureolaria plants are hemiparasitic, which is a character that in part describes the family Orobanchaceae.

Until recently the genus was aligned with members of the family Scrophulariaceae. As a result of numerous molecular phylogenetic studies based on various chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) loci, it was shown to be more closely related to members of the Orobanchaceae.[3]

Species

gollark: <@665664987578236961> I don't particularly *want* to die and if some point you're trying to make starts by convincing me I shouldn't mind I'm probably going to ignore it.
gollark: (again, more if healthcare is overloaded)
gollark: I am still *somewhat* scared of something like a 2% risk of death.
gollark: Well, isn't comparatively bad.
gollark: Just because something *isn't bad now* doesn't mean it can't be bad *later*.
