According to the latter systems, the Magnoliopsida includes all flowering plants, therefore, including not only the dicotyledons (under a subclass Magnoliidae) but also the monocotyledons (in another subclass Liliidae).

The Cronquist system (1981) used the name Magnoliidae for one of six subclasses (within class Magnoliopsida = dicotyledons ). In the original version of this system the circumscription was: [10] Subclass Magnoliidae :

Dicotyledonous plants (Class Magnoliopsida) are thought to be the most primitive flowering plants. They are defined by several characteristics. Similar to gnetophytes, all dicots germinate producing two seed leaves, hence dicotyledons.
