Gnetophyta (gnetophytes) includes only three monotypic genera in three orders: Ephedrales (Ephedra: ca. 50 species), Gnetales (Gnetum: ca. 40 species), and Welwitschiales. They are peculiar among extent gymnosperms because of their highly diverse angiosperm-like morphologies. (10.1016/j.ympev.2008.12.026)
