Acoraceae is the botanical name for a family of flowering plants. The sole included genus is Acorus.
Although the family Acoraceae was originally described in 1820, since then Acorus has traditionally been included in Araceae in most classification systems, as in the Cronquist System. The family has recently been resurrected as molecular systematic studies have shown that Acorus is not closely related to Araceae or any other monocot family. The APG II system, of 2003 (unchanged from the APG system, 1998), recognizes this family and gives it its own order Acorales, in the clade monocots.
