'''Siparunaceae''' is a [[Family (biology)|family]] of [[flowering plant]]s{{r|heywood2007}} in the [[magnoliid]] [[Order (biology)|order]] [[Laurales]].{{r|apweb}} It consists of two [[genera]] of [[woody plant]]s, with [[essential oil]]s: ''[[Glossocalyx]]'' in [[West Africa]] and ''[[Siparuna]]'' in the [[neotropics]]. ''Glossocalyx'' is [[Monotypic taxon|monospecific]] (''[[Glossocalyx longicuspis]]'') and ''Siparuna'' has about 74 known species.{{r|Christenhusz-Byng2016}}

Until the 1990s, most [[taxonomist]]s placed ''Glossocalyx'' and ''Siparuna'' in the family [[Monimiaceae]]. The [[monograph]] of Monimiaceae by [[William Raymond Philipson|William R. Philipson]] in 1993 was the last major work to do so.{{r|philipson1993}} In the 1990s, [[molecular phylogenetic]] [[Research|studies]] of [[DNA sequence]]s showed that Monimiaceae, as then [[Circumscription (taxonomy)|circumscribed]], was [[paraphyletic]]. When the [[Angiosperm Phylogeny Group]] published their [[APG system]] in 1998, the [[Obsolescence|old]] Monimiaceae was divided into three separate families: Siparunaceae, [[Atherospermataceae]], and Monimiaceae [[sensu stricto]]. This [[Biological classification|classification]] remained unchanged in the [[APG III system]] of 2009 and the [[APG IV system]] of 2016.<ref name="APGIII"/><ref name="APGIV"/>

The families Siparunaceae, [[Gomortegaceae]], and Atherospermataceae form one of the three major [[clade]]s that constitute the order Laurales. Siparunaceae is [[sister taxon|sister]] to the clade composed of Gomortegaceae and Atherospermataceae.{{r|massoni2014}}

In 1898, [[Janet Russell Perkins]] began a series of [[Article (publishing)|articles]] on Monimiaceae, but only two were ever completed. The second of these was mis-titled as part III on its first page (compare to table of contents therein){{r|perkins1901siparuna}} and covers the genus ''[[Siparuna]]''.
