Joinvilleaceae
The Joinvilleaceae are a family of flowering plants with a single genus including four species.[2] The APG II system, of 2003 (unchanged from the APG system, 1998) assigns it to the order Poales in the clade commelinids in the monocots. The family consists of one genus with four currently accepted species, distributed from the Malay Peninsula to the Caroline Islands and high islands in the Pacific Ocean. It is evolutionarily significant as a relictual group closely related to grasses. They closely resemble large grass plants, in both general appearance and microanatomy, but possess fleshy fruits.

gollark: It's somewhat important to incentivize people to make things which aren't conveniently sellable physical objects.
gollark: Plants should really have solar-powered microcontrollers with cellular/satellite links so they can receive emails.
gollark: I mean, natural ones yes, artificially designed ones I'm fine with. Although any sufficiently short one is probably going to turn up in some organism somewhere through sheer chance, even if it's not doing the same thing.
gollark: I think intellectual property definitely needs reduction. Copyright lasts waaaaay too long, patent weirdness basically stopped 3D printer development for ages, and trademarking-or-whatever "sky" is ridiculous. Also, you can patent some software stuff you probably shouldn't be able to.
gollark: In the UK, though, the situation is mostly that there are various different "ISPs", but they mostly use Openreach's network, which is sort of spun off from BT but not really. Although there are also cable-based ISPs (or, well, at least one?) and in big cities tons of high-speed fibre ones.
