The Magnoliales are a basal group, traditionally included among the dicots but apparently as closely related to the monocots as to most other such plants. They include the genus Magnolia, the type genus for the flowering plants in general, which are thereby called the Magnoliophyta. da:Magnolie-ordenen (Magnoliales) de:Magnolienartige es:Magnoliales fr:Magnoliales ja:モクレン目 nl:Magnoliales pl:Magnoliowce zh:木兰目
