Cephalotaceae

Definition

A family of carnivorous pitcher plants native to Australia, named for the unique head-shaped structure of their pitchers.

Etymology

From Greek kephalē (head) + Latin -aceae (plant family suffix). This botanical family name was coined because the pitcher plants have distinctive head-shaped structures at the end of their modified leaves.

Kelly Says

Plant families get '-aceae' names like a scientific naming convention—Cephalotaceae literally means 'head-like family' because the pitchers look like little heads, showing how botanists used appearance to create categorizing names.
